SLM-380 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SLM-380 is a T1/T1 3/4 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications. This component features a black nylon construction with a 0.380" (9.65mm) length and is classified as an active product with ROHS3 compliance. LED standoffs serve as mechanical and electrical positioning elements in circuit board assemblies, and equivalent substitutes may be required due to inventory availability, supply chain considerations, or design optimization needs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SLM-380 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• LED Type: T1 or T1 3/4 compatibility
• Material: Nylon construction
• Color: Black
• Packaging: Bag format
• Product Status: Active status
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Secondary Consideration:

• Length tolerance: Mechanical fit within 0.374" to 0.394" (9.50mm to 10.00mm) range

The substitute parts listed below maintain compatibility across all primary criteria. Length variations within the specified range are acceptable for T1/T1 3/4 LED standoff applications where mechanical positioning tolerances permit dimensional variance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SLM-380 (Bivar Inc.): Select this part when the original specification requires Bivar Inc. manufacturing or when MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating is a documented requirement. This part maintains active product status and full ROHS3 compliance.

705820095 (Würth Elektronik): This substitute provides a 0.374" (9.50mm) length, representing a 0.006" (0.15mm) reduction from the SLM-380 nominal dimension. Select this part when shorter standoff height is acceptable within assembly tolerances and when Würth Elektronik sourcing is preferred. ROHS3 compliance and active product status are maintained.

705820100 (Würth Elektronik): This substitute provides a 0.394" (10.00mm) length, representing a 0.014" (0.35mm) increase from the SLM-380 nominal dimension. Select this part when taller standoff height is acceptable within assembly tolerances and when Würth Elektronik sourcing is preferred. ROHS3 compliance and active product status are maintained. This part offers the highest inventory availability at 6138 pieces.

All three parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance and support T1/T1 3/4 LED types in black nylon construction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if a part can substitute for the SLM-380?

A: Substitute parts must maintain T1/T1 3/4 LED type compatibility, black color, nylon material composition, bag packaging format, active product status, and ROHS3 compliance. Length variations within the 0.374" to 0.394" range are acceptable for mechanical positioning applications.

Q: Are the Würth Elektronik parts (705820095 and 705820100) directly interchangeable with the SLM-380?

A: Both Würth Elektronik parts are parametrically equivalent based on LED type, color, material, packaging, and compliance status. The primary difference is length: 705820095 is 0.006" shorter and 705820100 is 0.014" longer than the SLM-380. Interchangeability depends on assembly mechanical tolerances and design specifications.

Q: What is the difference between 705820095 and 705820100?

A: Both parts are manufactured by Würth Elektronik with identical LED type, color, and material specifications. The sole difference is length: 705820095 measures 0.374" (9.50mm) while 705820100 measures 0.394" (10.00mm). Selection between these two depends on required standoff height for the specific application.

Q: Do all substitute parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: The SLM-380 carries an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). The Würth Elektronik substitutes (705820095 and 705820100) list MSL as Not Applicable. Both approaches indicate minimal moisture sensitivity concerns for these nylon standoff components.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The SLM-380 and both Würth Elektronik substitutes (705820095 and 705820100) are ROHS3 Compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Which substitute part has the best inventory availability?

A: Part 705820100 offers the highest inventory level at 6138 pieces in stock, compared to 1578 pieces for 705820095 and 825 pieces for the SLM-380.
