Would it be safe to replace a ferrite bead that had a rating of 47 ohm @ 100MHz 5A with one that is 70 Ohms @ 100MHz 6A?
I can't seem to find an exact replacement.

3Depends on the application, post a schematic. Post both model numbers, or even better, the frequency graphs for both. – Voltage Spike Oct 07 '19 at 17:00

1Without giving us the application, it's like asking if it's okay to replace a car with a truck. – Bort Oct 07 '19 at 17:39

I posted the schematic. I don't have a model number of graph for the original. – Oggie Oct 07 '19 at 17:50

Those singular numbers you give are pretty much useless for evaluating ferrite beads. You need frequency vs impedance curves. – DKNguyen Oct 07 '19 at 18:14

what are your troublesome frequencies? – analogsystemsrf Oct 08 '19 at 02:13

Looks like a good choice to absorb some emissions for +5V user external use as long as you use twisted pair wires and a low ESR user load cap to regulate the load transients.

Sure you can, IMO the second is even better choice since it has a higher impedance at rated frequency, which means it will attenuate more radio interference that it will catch in external IO wires acting like antenna. At the same time it can pass more DC current 6A vs 5A, it will have lower impedance at DC.
