Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OSTHM086080 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Current rating (8 A), voltage rating (250 V), and wire gauge compatibility (12-28 AWG) must match exactly
• Physical Configuration: 8 positions per level, 0.400" (10.16mm) pitch, vertical with board orientation, and through-hole mounting type must be identical
• Termination Technology: Screwless push-in spring termination method must be preserved
• Material Compatibility: Thermoplastic housing and brass contact plating ensure functional equivalence

The substitute part HM0860800000G manufactured by Amphenol Anytek meets all these criteria, providing direct functional replacement capability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HM0860800000G from Amphenol Anytek is the qualified substitute for the obsolete OSTHM086080. Both components maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status with expanded operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 115°C versus -30°C ~ 105°C), providing enhanced thermal performance margins. Both parts maintain full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment. The tin plating on the brass contacts of the substitute part provides enhanced corrosion resistance compared to the base brass plating of the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HM0860800000G be used as a direct replacement for OSTHM086080?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings (8 A, 250 V), physical configuration (8 positions, 0.400" pitch), mounting type (through hole), and termination technology (screwless push-in spring). PCB footprints and hole patterns are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference in contact plating between the two parts?

A: OSTHM086080 uses brass contacts, while HM0860800000G uses tin-plated brass contacts. Tin plating provides improved corrosion resistance and is suitable for all applications where the original part was specified.

Q: Does the expanded operating temperature range of HM0860800000G affect compatibility?

A: No. The substitute part's operating range (-40°C ~ 115°C) encompasses the original part's range (-30°C ~ 105°C). This represents an enhancement with no compatibility concerns.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both OSTHM086080 and HM0860800000G are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by the substitute part?

A: The HM0860800000G accommodates 12-28 AWG wire gauges, identical to the original OSTHM086080 specification.
