PT06E-14-5P Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PT06E-14-5P is a 5-position circular connector plug manufactured by Amphenol Industrial Operations, conforming to MIL-DTL-26482 Series I specifications. This male pin connector features solder cup termination, bayonet lock fastening, and is designed for free-hanging in-line mounting applications. The connector is actively produced and maintains 997 units in current inventory stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component interchangeability in applications where the primary part becomes unavailable or procurement constraints require alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PT06E-14-5P is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

• Connector Configuration: Plug type with male pins, 5-position arrangement
• Mechanical Interface: Shell size 14-5 with bayonet lock fastening for physical mating compatibility
• Termination Method: Solder cup or equivalent solder termination
• Environmental Rating: Environment sealed or environment resistant classification
• Operating Temperature: -55°C to 125°C range capability
• Series Standard: MIL-DTL-26482 style compliance

The substitute part MSW06E14-5P meets these core substitution criteria through identical connector type, position count, shell size, fastening mechanism, and operating temperature specification. Both parts are manufactured to military circular connector standards and maintain equivalent mechanical interfaces for direct substitution in applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the PT06E-14-5P and MSW06E14-5P are active production components with current inventory availability. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

PT06E-14-5P (Amphenol Industrial Operations): Primary selection when Amphenol sourcing is required or preferred. Maintains MIL-DTL-26482 Series I designation with environment sealed ingress protection. RoHS non-compliant status aligns with military and aerospace applications where cadmium plating and chromate finishes are specified.

MSW06E14-5P (Milspecwest, LLC): Suitable alternative when Milspecwest procurement is available or advantageous. Provides explicit current (13A) and voltage (800V) ratings not specified in the primary part documentation. Maintains 26482 style compliance with environment resistant classification. RoHS non-compliant status consistent with military connector standards.

Both parts are classified as EAR99 for export control purposes and are suitable for military applications. Selection should account for supply chain requirements, lead time considerations, and established vendor relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MSW06E14-5P directly replace PT06E-14-5P in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical shell size (14-5), connector type (plug with male pins), position count (5), fastening mechanism (bayonet lock), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The mechanical interface and mating characteristics are equivalent, enabling direct substitution in applications where the primary part is unavailable.

Q: What is the difference between "Environment Sealed" and "Environment Resistant" ingress protection ratings?

A: Both classifications indicate environmental protection suitable for military applications. Environment Sealed provides complete sealing against environmental ingress, while Environment Resistant provides protection against environmental exposure. For the 5-position circular connector category, both ratings are compatible for substitution purposes.

Q: Why are current and voltage ratings specified for MSW06E14-5P but not for PT06E-14-5P?

A: The PT06E-14-5P documentation does not include explicit electrical ratings in the provided specification. The MSW06E14-5P documentation provides 13A current and 800V voltage ratings. When electrical ratings are required for application design, the MSW06E14-5P specifications (13A, 800V) may be referenced as a compatible alternative with documented electrical performance.

Q: Are both parts suitable for aerospace and military applications?

A: PT06E-14-5P is specified for aerospace, industrial, instrumentation, mass transit, and military applications. MSW06E14-5P is specified for military applications. Both parts are RoHS non-compliant and maintain MIL-DTL-26482 style compliance, making them suitable for military connector requirements. Application-specific qualification requirements should be verified against individual program specifications.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: PT06E-14-5P is supplied in bulk packaging with 997 units in current inventory. MSW06E14-5P is supplied in bag packaging with 1139 units in current inventory. Packaging format does not affect connector performance or substitution compatibility; selection should account for procurement quantity requirements and inventory management practices.
