RM15WTP-CP(6)(71) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RM15WTP-CP(6)(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 a circular connector cable clamp designed for IP67-rated applications requiring dust-tight and waterproof sealing. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RM15WTP-CP(6)(71) is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Thread Size: M16x0.75 (mechanical interface requirement)
• Cable Exit Angle: 180° (installation geometry requirement)
• Ingress Protection Rating: IP67 minimum (environmental sealing requirement)
• Material Compatibility: Brass, Zinc Alloy construction with appropriate plating
• Series Compatibility: RM-W or JR-W series plugs (cross-series compatibility established)

The substitute part JR13WCC-6(72) meets these criteria with the following considerations: it maintains M16x0.75 threading and 180° cable exit geometry, preserves IP67 ingress protection, and is confirmed compatible with both JR-W and RM-W series plugs. Variations in shell size (13 vs. 15), cable opening diameter (0.236" vs. 0.256"), outside diameter (0.787" vs. 0.748"), material composition (Aluminum Alloy addition), plating type (Chrome vs. Nickel), and color (Black vs. Silver) represent design differences that do not affect functional substitution within the specified parameter constraints.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The JR13WCC-6(72) is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete RM15WTP-CP(6)(71). Selection of this substitute is supported by the following engineering factors:

Product Status: The RM15WTP-CP(6)(71) is obsolete, while JR13WCC-6(72) maintains active product status with confirmed current manufacturing and inventory availability (1072 pcs in stock).

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification. The substitute achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original part status is not specified. The substitute is REACH Affected, indicating full regulatory documentation availability for supply chain compliance.

Functional Equivalence: Both components satisfy M16x0.75 threading, 180° cable exit geometry, and IP67 ingress protection requirements. Cross-series compatibility with both JR-W and RM-W series plugs is explicitly documented for the substitute.

Material and Plating Differences: The substitute incorporates Aluminum Alloy in addition to Brass and Zinc Alloy, with Chrome plating replacing Nickel. These material changes do not compromise functional performance within the specified electrical and mechanical parameter envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can JR13WCC-6(72) directly replace RM15WTP-CP(6)(71) in existing assemblies?

A: Yes, within the constraints of the specified parameters. Both components share M16x0.75 threading, 180° cable exit geometry, and IP67 ingress protection. The substitute is confirmed compatible with both JR-W and RM-W series plugs. Physical dimensional differences (shell size 13 vs. 15, outside diameter 0.787" vs. 0.748", cable opening 0.236" vs. 0.256") must be evaluated against specific mechanical mounting requirements in your application.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: Critical functional parameters are identical: thread size, cable exit angle, and ingress protection rating. Differences include shell size classification, cable opening diameter, outside diameter, material composition (Aluminum Alloy addition in substitute), plating type (Chrome vs. Nickel), color (Black vs. Silver), and included components (substitute includes clamp screws; original includes gasket and washer).

Q: Is the substitute part currently available?

A: Yes. JR13WCC-6(72) is active product status with 1072 pcs in stock as new original inventory.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute?

A: JR13WCC-6(72) is ROHS3 compliant and REACH Affected. Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification and EAR99 ECCN designation.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the original and substitute?

A: Yes. The original RM15WTP-CP(6)(71) packaging is not specified. The substitute JR13WCC-6(72) is supplied in bulk packaging and includes 5 pcs per package (1 cable clamp, 1 gasket, 2 screws, 1 washer), compared to the original package contents of 4 pcs (2 clamps, 1 gasket, 1 washer).
