RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) is a silver connector cable clamp with internal M16x0.75 threading, manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd as part of the RM-W series. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and component procurement. The cable clamp features IP67 ingress protection and is designed for use with RM-W series plugs in applications requiring secure cable termination with environmental sealing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Thread Size: M16x0.75 (must match for mechanical compatibility)
• Cable Exit: 180° (orientation requirement)
• Ingress Protection: IP67 (environmental sealing specification)
• Cable Opening: Tolerance range 10.00mm to 10.50mm (accommodates cable diameter variations)
• Shell Size - Insert: Compatibility with RM-W and JR-W series plugs

The substitute part JR13WCC-10(72) meets these criteria while offering active product status and enhanced compliance certifications. Both parts share identical thread specifications, cable exit orientation, and ingress protection ratings, enabling functional equivalence in applications requiring M16x0.75 threaded cable clamps with IP67 sealing.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between the RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) and JR13WCC-10(72) is determined by application requirements and regulatory compliance:

Use RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) when:

• Existing inventory of obsolete parts must be depleted
• REACH Unaffected status is a specific requirement
• Nickel plating is mandated by application specifications
• Shell size 15 compatibility with existing RM-W series plugs is required

Use JR13WCC-10(72) when:

• Active product availability and long-term supply continuity are required
• RoHS3 compliance is mandated
• REACH compliance requirements apply to the application
• Chrome plating meets or exceeds corrosion resistance requirements
• Shell size 13 compatibility with JR-W series plugs is acceptable
• Integrated clamp screws reduce assembly complexity

Both parts satisfy identical thread specifications (M16x0.75), cable exit orientation (180°), and ingress protection ratings (IP67), establishing functional equivalence for cable termination applications. Verification of plug compatibility with the respective shell sizes (15 vs. 13) is required before final selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can JR13WCC-10(72) directly replace RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) in existing assemblies?

A: Direct replacement requires verification of two factors: (1) compatibility of the shell size 13 insert with existing RM-W series plugs, and (2) confirmation that the 20.00mm outside diameter accommodates available mounting clearance. The identical M16x0.75 thread and 180° cable exit enable functional substitution if these mechanical constraints are satisfied.

Q: What is the significance of the different cable opening dimensions (10.50mm vs. 10.00mm)?

A: Both cable opening specifications fall within acceptable tolerance for standard cable diameters. The 0.50mm difference accommodates minor variations in cable jacket thickness. Verify that the cable diameter used in the application is compatible with the 10.00mm opening of the substitute part.

Q: Why does the substitute part include clamp screws while the original does not?

A: The JR13WCC-10(72) includes two clamp screws as part of its standard package (5 pcs total), whereas the RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) provides only the clamp and sealing components (4 pcs total). This represents an enhancement in the substitute design, reducing the need for separate fastener procurement.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The JR13WCC-10(72) is RoHS3 compliant and REACH Affected, while the RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) is REACH Unaffected with unspecified RoHS status. Applications subject to RoHS3 or REACH regulations must use the substitute part. Both parts share identical ECCN classification (EAR99).

Q: Does the plating difference (Nickel vs. Chrome) affect performance?

A: Plating selection depends on application environment. Nickel plating (original) and chrome plating (substitute) both provide corrosion resistance suitable for IP67 applications. Chrome plating typically offers superior corrosion resistance in harsh marine or chemical environments. Verify plating requirements against specific application specifications.

Q: What is the impact of different material compositions?

A: The RM15WTP-CP(10)(71) uses Brass and Zinc Alloy, while the JR13WCC-10(72) adds Aluminum Alloy to the composition. This substitution reduces overall weight while maintaining mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. No performance degradation is expected in standard cable clamp applications.

Q: Can both parts be used interchangeably in the same system?

A: Interchangeability is limited to applications where shell size compatibility is not a constraint. The different shell sizes (15 vs. 13) may prevent simultaneous use in systems with fixed plug interfaces. Verify plug compatibility before mixing parts in multi-connector assemblies.
