3M 7000133368 Locking Fork Terminal Vinyl Insulated

Product Description

The 3M 7000133368 is a vinyl-insulated locking fork terminal sold in bottles of 100. Designed for secure, vibration-resistant wire termination, the locking fork style provides a positive mechanical lock to the stud or binding post, reducing the chance of accidental disconnection. The vinyl insulation sleeve protects the conductor barrel and helps prevent short circuits in tight panel or junction box environments. This terminal is part of the MV14-10FLX product family and is intended for installation by licensed electricians and experienced electrical technicians working on control panels, instrumentation wiring, and similar low-voltage applications.

Locking fork terminals are used in residential and commercial electrical work wherever a reliable, tool-free removable connection to a screw terminal or stud is required. The locking tab engages the stud to prevent the terminal from backing off under vibration or repeated thermal cycling. Typical applications include control panel wiring, HVAC low-voltage circuits, and industrial instrumentation. The bottle quantity of 100 makes this well suited for high-volume termination work on larger panel builds or service truck stocking.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style locking fork terminal for use with standard screw studs and binding posts in control panel, instrumentation, and low-voltage electrical wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating or removing any connectors. Use a properly calibrated crimping tool rated for the wire gauge and terminal series to ensure a gas-tight crimp. Do not over-crimp the vinyl insulation sleeve, as this can crack the insulation and compromise the electrical protection.
