SLM-710 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SLM-710 is a T1/T1 3/4 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., constructed from black nylon with a length of 0.710" (18.03mm). This component is an active product with full ROHS3 compliance and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (unlimited). LED standoffs are mechanical spacers designed to position and support LED components in circuit assemblies. Equivalent substitute parts are identified to provide procurement flexibility, alternative sourcing options, and inventory management capabilities when the primary part becomes unavailable.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SLM-710 with the Würth Elektronik 705820180 is permissible based on matching critical parameters. Both parts meet the following substitution criteria:

• LED Type: T1 and T1 3/4 LED compatibility in both parts
• Material: Nylon construction in both parts
• Color: Black finish in both parts
• Length Tolerance: 0.710" (18.03mm) versus 0.709" (18.00mm) represents a dimensional variation of 0.01mm, within acceptable mechanical tolerances for LED standoff applications
• RoHS Compliance: Both parts meet ROHS3 requirements
• Packaging: Both supplied in bag packaging format
• Product Status: Both are active products in current production

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Würth Elektronik 705820180 functions as a parametric equivalent to the SLM-710. Both parts are active products in current production with full ROHS3 compliance, ensuring supply chain reliability and regulatory compatibility. Selection between these parts may be determined by inventory availability, lead times, and cost factors. The dimensional difference of 0.01mm falls within standard mechanical tolerances for LED standoff applications. Both components meet all specified electrical and mechanical requirements for direct substitution in LED positioning applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the SLM-710 and 705820180 mechanically interchangeable? A: Yes. Both parts are T1/T1 3/4 LED standoffs with black nylon construction. The length difference of 0.01mm (0.710" versus 0.709") is negligible for mechanical positioning applications and does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet regulatory compliance requirements? A: Yes. Both the SLM-710 and 705820180 are ROHS3 compliant. The SLM-710 carries Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage and handling.

Q: What is the significance of the "Nylon 66 UL94 V-2" specification on the Würth Elektronik part? A: This specification indicates the material grade and fire rating of the nylon material used in the 705820180. Both parts are constructed from nylon and maintain electrical and mechanical properties suitable for LED standoff applications. The UL94 V-2 rating indicates fire performance classification per UL standards.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs? A: The parts are dimensionally and functionally equivalent for LED positioning applications. Design verification should confirm that the 0.01mm length variation does not affect circuit board layout or component clearance in the specific application.

Q: What should determine the choice between these two parts? A: Selection should be based on procurement factors including inventory availability, supplier lead times, and cost. Both parts satisfy identical electrical and mechanical requirements for LED standoff applications.
