XAP.M13.GLA.6B Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XAP.M13.GLA.6B is a 13-position circular connector plug with male pins and solder cup termination, manufactured by LEMO. This connector is designed for industrial, medical, and testing equipment applications. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the XAP.M13.GLA.6B is determined by the following critical parameters:

Direct Substitutes must maintain:

• 13-position connector configuration
• M13 shell size
• Male pin connector type
• Solder cup termination
• Push-Pull fastening mechanism
• Gold contact finish
• 4A current rating
• IP50 ingress protection rating
• Compatible cable opening range (0.209" ~ 0.256")
• Operating temperature range of at least -50°C ~ 170°C

Similar Substitutes may vary in:

• Number of positions (if system design permits)
• Shell size (if mechanical envelope allows)
• Current rating (if application requirements are lower)
• Operating temperature range (if application requirements are lower)
• Fastening mechanism (if connector interface is compatible)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SAP.M13.GLA.6B is the primary direct substitute for XAP.M13.GLA.6B. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering the advantage of active product status. Both connectors are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The SAP.M13.GLA.6B expands application scope to include automotive environments while preserving all critical parameters required for industrial, medical, and testing equipment use.

PAG.M1.4GL.AC65G is classified as a similar substitute and should be considered only when system design modifications are acceptable. This connector differs in three critical parameters: 14-position configuration (versus 13), M14 shell size (versus M13), and 2A current rating (versus 4A). The operating temperature range is also reduced to -50°C ~ 150°C. This part is suitable only for applications where the additional position, larger shell size, and lower current capacity do not create design conflicts, and where the reduced temperature range meets application requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SAP.M13.GLA.6B be used as a direct replacement for XAP.M13.GLA.6B?

A: Yes. The SAP.M13.GLA.6B maintains identical specifications for connector type, position count, shell size, termination method, fastening mechanism, contact finish, current rating, operating temperature range, and ingress protection. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The primary difference is product status: XAP.M13.GLA.6B is obsolete while SAP.M13.GLA.6B is active.

Q: What are the limitations of using PAG.M1.4GL.AC65G as a substitute?

A: The PAG.M1.4GL.AC65G introduces three material differences: 14 positions instead of 13, M14 shell size instead of M13, and 2A current rating instead of 4A. The operating temperature maximum is also reduced from 170°C to 150°C. This part is suitable only for applications where these parameter changes do not conflict with system requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both SAP.M13.GLA.6B and PAG.M1.4GL.AC65G are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance status of the original XAP.M13.GLA.6B.

Q: What is the cable opening specification, and does it apply to all listed parts?

A: The cable opening specification is 0.209" ~ 0.256" (5.30mm ~ 6.50mm). This specification is identical across XAP.M13.GLA.6B, SAP.M13.GLA.6B, and PAG.M1.4GL.AC65G.

Q: How does the fastening mechanism differ between the main part and similar substitute?

A: The XAP.M13.GLA.6B and SAP.M13.GLA.6B both use Push-Pull fastening. The PAG.M1.4GL.AC65G uses Push-Pull with an additional Detent Lock feature, providing enhanced mechanical retention.
