SLW-107-01-S-S Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SLW-107-01-S-S is a 7-position rectangular receptacle connector manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for board-to-board applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch through-hole mounting. This connector features gold-plated mating contacts and tin-plated posts for reliable solder termination. The product is currently active and maintains 1084 units in stock inventory.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part specifications, enabling direct replacement in applications where the connector serves the same functional role.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 929870-01-07-RB (3M) qualifies as a substitute for the SLW-107-01-S-S based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

• Connector type: Both are receptacles
• Position count: Both accommodate 7 positions
• Mating pitch: Both use 0.100" (2.54mm) spacing
• Board-to-board configuration: Both support this application style
• Through-hole mounting: Both utilize solder termination
• Contact finish: Both feature gold-plated mating surfaces
• Fastening mechanism: Both employ push-pull fastening
• Contact geometry: Both use forked contact design

Substitution is valid where these core electrical and mechanical parameters determine functional compatibility in the target application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SLW-107-01-S-S and 929870-01-07-RB maintain active product status and comply with RoHS and REACH regulations. The 929870-01-07-RB carries UL94 V-0 material flammability certification, providing additional compliance documentation for applications requiring flame-resistance verification. Both connectors are classified under identical HTSUS and ECCN codes, confirming equivalent regulatory treatment.

Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain availability, lead time requirements, and any application-specific compliance documentation needs. The 929870-01-07-RB currently maintains 1438 units in inventory compared to 1084 units for the SLW-107-01-S-S.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if the 929870-01-07-RB can replace the SLW-107-01-S-S?

A: Substitution is valid when the connector type, position count, mating pitch, mounting style, termination method, contact finish, and fastening mechanism are identical. Both parts meet these criteria as 7-position, 0.100" pitch, through-hole solder receptacles with gold mating contacts and push-pull fastening.

Q: Are there differences in physical dimensions between these connectors?

A: The insulation height differs between parts (SLW-107-01-S-S: 0.180" vs. 929870-01-07-RB: 0.150") and contact post length varies (SLW-107-01-S-S: 0.115" vs. 929870-01-07-RB: 0.125"). These dimensional variations must be evaluated against PCB layout and mating connector specifications to ensure mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do operating temperature ranges differ?

A: Yes. The SLW-107-01-S-S operates from -55°C to 125°C, while the 929870-01-07-RB operates from -40°C to 105°C. Applications requiring the full -55°C to 125°C range must use the SLW-107-01-S-S.

Q: What is the difference in electrical ratings?

A: The 929870-01-07-RB specifies 1A current rating and 1000V voltage rating. The SLW-107-01-S-S does not provide these electrical specifications in the available data. Applications with defined electrical requirements should reference the 929870-01-07-RB specifications.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The SLW-107-01-S-S is ROHS3 compliant and the 929870-01-07-RB is RoHS compliant. Both meet current RoHS requirements and are REACH unaffected.
