Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the OSTHB083180 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Position count and pitch: 8 positions at 0.150" (3.81mm) spacing
• Electrical ratings: 10 A current and 300 V voltage capacity
• Termination method: Screwless push-button clamp mechanism
• Mounting configuration: Through-hole horizontal PCB orientation
• Wire compatibility: 16-20 AWG wire gauge acceptance
• Mechanical features: Side interlocking design
• Material composition: Thermoplastic housing with brass contacts

The substitute part HB0831800000G from Amphenol Anytek meets all these criteria, providing direct functional equivalence while offering active product status and extended operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HB0831800000G from Amphenol Anytek is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete OSTHB083180. Both components maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters, including position count, pitch, current and voltage ratings, wire gauge compatibility, and termination methodology.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. Both components satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. The HB0831800000G provides an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 115°C versus -30°C to 105°C), offering improved thermal performance margins. The tin-plated brass contact finish on the substitute part provides enhanced corrosion resistance compared to the base brass plating of the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HB0831800000G be used as a direct replacement for OSTHB083180 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical position count, pitch spacing, electrical ratings, wire gauge compatibility, and termination method. PCB footprints and mounting hole patterns are equivalent, enabling direct substitution without design modification.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The OSTHB083180 is obsolete, while the HB0831800000G maintains active product status. The substitute offers extended operating temperature range and tin-plated contact finish for improved corrosion resistance.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Regulatory compliance is equivalent between the two parts.

Q: Does the tin plating on the HB0831800000G affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tin plating on brass contacts is a standard enhancement that improves corrosion resistance and contact reliability without altering electrical characteristics. Current and voltage ratings remain unchanged.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The HB0831800000G is supplied in bulk packaging, with 864 pieces currently in stock as new original inventory.
