SSM-106-T-SV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSM-106-T-SV is a 6-position receptacle pass-through connector from Samtec Inc.'s Tiger Claw™ SSM series, designed for surface mount applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. This connector features female socket contacts with tin finish, rated for 5.2A per contact and 405VAC/572VDC operation across an extended temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part is ROHS3 compliant and currently active in production with 693 units in stock. Identifying equivalent substitute parts ensures design flexibility, supply chain continuity, and access to alternative inventory sources when the primary part becomes unavailable or when specific manufacturing features are required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSM-106-T-SV is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (receptacle, pass-through), contact configuration (6-position female socket), pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm), mounting method (surface mount), electrical ratings (5.2A per contact, 405VAC/572VDC), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and material specifications (LCP insulation, tin-finished phosphor bronze contacts). The identified substitute part SSM-106-T-SV-K maintains identical electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications while differing only in manufacturing features (Pick and Place capability) that do not affect functional interchangeability. Both parts share the same base product number (SSM-106), series designation, and compliance certifications, confirming their equivalence for circuit design and assembly applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSM-106-T-SV and SSM-106-T-SV-K are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and manufacturing process requirements. The SSM-106-T-SV-K includes Pick and Place features, which may provide advantages in automated assembly environments. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, eliminating special storage or handling requirements. Current inventory levels (693 units for SSM-106-T-SV and 774 units for SSM-106-T-SV-K) support immediate procurement for production applications.
