Equivalent & Substitute Parts for P22-2F-M

Part Overview

The P22-2F-M is a 2 stud spade terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for crimp termination of 22-26 AWG wire. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts for ongoing procurement and design applications. The spade terminal configuration provides a free-hanging, in-line mounting solution with tin-plated copper contact material and brazed seam construction.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P22-2F-M is determined by alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Stud/Tab Size: 2 Stud configuration (electrical and mechanical interface requirement)
• Wire Gauge: 22-26 AWG (conductor compatibility)
• Termination Method: Crimp (assembly process compatibility)
• Contact Material and Finish: Copper with tin plating (electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance)
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line) (installation configuration)
• Series: Pan-Term® (product family consistency)
• Insulation Status: Non-Insulated (electrical isolation requirement)

The P22-2R-M qualifies as a substitute based on matching all critical parameters. The primary functional difference is the terminal geometry: the P22-2F-M features a spade terminal configuration, while the P22-2R-M features a circular ring terminal configuration. Both configurations accommodate the same stud size and wire gauge range within the Pan-Term® series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The P22-2R-M serves as the active equivalent for the obsolete P22-2F-M. Selection between these components is determined by the terminal geometry requirement of the application:

P22-2F-M (Spade Terminal): Suitable for applications requiring a flat, blade-like terminal interface. This configuration is obsolete and no longer in active production.

P22-2R-M (Ring Terminal): Suitable for applications requiring a circular ring terminal interface. This component is active and maintains full compliance with ROHS3 standards and REACH regulations. The P22-2R-M is available in bulk packaging with 2319 pieces in current inventory.

Both components share identical electrical specifications (22-26 AWG wire gauge, 2 stud size, crimp termination, tin-plated copper contact material) and comply with the same regulatory classifications (EAR99, HTSUS 8536.90.4000, REACH Unaffected, MSL Not Applicable).

The selection between spade and ring terminal geometry is application-dependent and based on the stud or fastener configuration in the target assembly. Dimensional differences exist: the P22-2R-M has a thickness of 0.020" (0.51mm) and slightly larger overall dimensions (0.520" length, 0.205" width) compared to the P22-2F-M (0.490" length, 0.200" width).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the P22-2R-M directly replace the P22-2F-M in all applications?

A: The P22-2R-M matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters (stud size, wire gauge, termination method, contact material and finish). However, the terminal geometry differs: P22-2F-M is a spade configuration while P22-2R-M is a ring configuration. Direct substitution is possible only if the application's stud or fastener interface accommodates a ring terminal. Spade terminals are typically used with quick-disconnect receptacles, while ring terminals are used with threaded studs or bolts.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by: stud/tab size (2 stud), wire gauge range (22-26 AWG), termination method (crimp), contact material (copper), contact finish (tin), mounting type (free hanging in-line), and insulation status (non-insulated). All these parameters must align between the original and substitute component.

Q: Is the P22-2R-M compliant with current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. The P22-2R-M is ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes. The component is active in production and maintains full compliance with current environmental and trade regulations.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these components?

A: The P22-2F-M is listed with no specified packaging designation, while the P22-2R-M is supplied in bulk packaging. The P22-2R-M has 2319 pieces currently in inventory compared to 856 pieces for the obsolete P22-2F-M.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between the P22-2F-M and P22-2R-M?

A: Yes. The P22-2R-M has a thickness of 0.020" (0.51mm), overall length of 0.520" (13.21mm), and outer edge width of 0.205" (5.20mm). The P22-2F-M has an overall length of 0.490" (12.45mm) and outer edge width of 0.200" (5.08mm). These dimensional differences reflect the different terminal geometries (spade versus ring).

Q: Why is the P22-2F-M classified as obsolete?

A: The P22-2F-M is listed as obsolete, indicating it is no longer in active production. The P22-2R-M, with its ring terminal configuration, represents the active Pan-Term® series offering for 2 stud, 22-26 AWG crimp terminals.
