PV6-14R-E Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PV6-14R-E is a ring terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for 6 AWG wire termination on 1/4 inch studs. This flat-sided insulated terminal features a brazed seam construction with tin-plated copper contact material and blue vinyl insulation. The product is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components for ongoing procurement and system maintenance.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PV6-14R-E is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters: wire gauge (6 AWG), stud size (1/4 inch), termination method (crimp), insulation requirement (insulated), contact material (copper), contact finish (tin), and mounting configuration (free hanging in-line). The substitute part 52042-9 satisfies all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters required for functional equivalence. Variations in terminal geometry (flat-sided versus circular), insulation material composition (vinyl versus PVC), and feature implementation (brazed seam versus serrated termination) do not preclude substitution when core electrical and mechanical specifications remain constant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PV6-14R-E is classified as obsolete, making 52042-9 the appropriate active substitute for new designs and replacement applications. The substitute part 52042-9 is manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and maintains active product status with RoHS compliance certification. Both components share identical wire gauge (6 AWG), stud size (1/4 inch), crimp termination, copper contact material with tin finish, and free-hanging mounting configuration. The substitute part is available in tape and reel packaging with 1676 pieces in current inventory. Selection of 52042-9 ensures compliance with current regulatory standards while maintaining functional equivalence to the obsolete PV6-14R-E.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 52042-9 directly replace PV6-14R-E in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both components share identical wire gauge (6 AWG), stud size (1/4 inch), crimp termination, contact material (copper), contact finish (tin), and mounting type (free hanging in-line). The substitute part satisfies all functional requirements for direct replacement.

Q: What are the differences between PV6-14R-E and 52042-9?

A: The primary differences are terminal geometry (flat-sided versus circular), insulation material (vinyl versus PVC), and construction features (brazed seam versus serrated termination). The insulation diameter of 52042-9 is 0.360 inches compared to 0.340 inches for PV6-14R-E. These variations do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility for the specified application.

Q: Why is PV6-14R-E classified as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by manufacturer discontinuation. The substitute part 52042-9 is actively manufactured and supported, making it the recommended selection for ongoing procurement.

Q: What packaging is available for 52042-9?

A: The substitute part 52042-9 is supplied in tape and reel (TR) packaging format with 1676 pieces currently in inventory.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: Yes. The PV6-14R-E lists RoHS status as not applicable. The substitute part 52042-9 is RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Q: What is the insulation material difference?

A: PV6-14R-E uses vinyl insulation material, while 52042-9 uses poly-vinyl chloride (PVC). Both are insulated blue terminals suitable for the specified wire gauge and stud size.
