3M 7010349241 Ring Terminal 16-14 Awg No. 8 Stud Crimp 100 Pack

Product Description

The 3M 7010349241 is a partially insulated circular ring terminal designed for crimp connections on 16 to 14 AWG copper conductors. The nylon insulation sleeve covers the barrel partially, providing a secure hold while leaving the ring exposed for stud mounting. Rated for a No. 8 stud, the copper contact material ensures reliable conductivity and resistance to corrosion in panel wiring, control circuits, and junction box terminations. This terminal is sold in a pack of 100 and is color-coded blue for quick identification of the 16 to 14 AWG wire range. It meets UL, CSA, and RoHS compliance standards, making it suitable for commercial and industrial electrical work.

This ring terminal is used in residential and commercial electrical installations where a permanent, low-resistance connection to a screw or stud terminal is required. Typical applications include control panel wiring, motor lead terminations, HVAC low-voltage circuits, and equipment grounding points. Electricians and HVAC technicians commonly use this style of terminal when landing wires on terminal blocks, bus bars, or equipment studs. The 100-unit pack quantity suits service vans and shop stock replenishment.

Key Features

• Partially insulated nylon sleeve provides strain relief and insulation at the barrel
• Crimp connection for fast, tool-based termination without soldering
• Copper contact material for low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections
• Color-coded blue for immediate AWG range identification at 16 to 14 AWG
• No. 8 stud size fits common panel and equipment terminal screws
• UL Listed, CSA Certified, and RoHS compliant for use in code-governed installations

Compatibility

Designed for use with 16 to 14 AWG wire on No. 8 stud terminations. Suitable as a standard crimp ring terminal in residential and commercial electrical, HVAC control wiring, and light industrial panel work where a partially insulated nylon-sleeve terminal is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified technician in accordance with NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before terminating or disturbing any connections. Use a calibrated ratchet crimping tool rated for insulated terminals to achieve a full, secure crimp — never use pliers or non-rated tools as an alternative. Inspect the crimped barrel for deformation or cracking before restoring power.
