3M 7000133673 Vinyl Ring Terminal Awg 12-10 3/8 Inch Stud

Product Description

The 3M 7000133673 is a vinyl-insulated ring terminal designed for secure, permanent electrical connections in trade and industrial wiring applications. Sized for AWG 12-10 wire, it accepts a 3/8-inch stud and features a closed-ring tongue style that holds the connection in place until the mounting screw is physically removed. This design makes it one of the most mechanically secure crimp terminal types available, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection in vibration-prone environments. Electricians and maintenance technicians rely on ring terminals like this for panel wiring, equipment grounding, and control circuit terminations where a stable, insulated connection is required.

This terminal is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical work where AWG 12 or AWG 10 conductors are terminated at a 3/8-inch stud or screw. Common applications include motor control panels, electrical enclosures, grounding connections, and power distribution terminals. The vinyl insulation provides a degree of strain relief at the crimp barrel and helps prevent contact with adjacent conductors or metal enclosure surfaces. Sold in a pack of 10 bags, making it practical for service vans and job-site supply.

Key Features

• Closed ring tongue style — connection remains secure until mounting screw is removed
• Accepts AWG 12-10 wire range for versatile conductor compatibility
• 3/8-inch stud size fits standard terminal studs and machine screws
• Vinyl insulation provides electrical isolation and crimp-area strain relief
• Sold in a case quantity of 10 bags for job-site and van stock use

Compatibility

Designed for use with AWG 12-10 stranded or solid conductors terminated at 3/8-inch mounting studs, suitable for standard residential and commercial electrical panel and equipment wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Ring terminals are installed by licensed electricians or qualified maintenance technicians using an appropriate ratchet-style or calibrated crimp tool rated for the wire gauge. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating any conductor. Inspect the crimp for a complete, uniform barrel compression before torquing the mounting hardware. Follow NEC requirements for the specific circuit type and enclosure rating.
