3M 7010349262 Male Wire Disconnect 16-14 Awg 100 Pack

Product Description

The 3M 7010349262 is a male quick-disconnect terminal designed for fast, tool-free wiring connections in electrical and low-voltage applications. The partially insulated vinyl sleeve covers the barrel in blue, making polarity and circuit identification straightforward on the job. Rated for 16-14 AWG wire, this disconnect accepts a 1/4 inch tab and delivers a secure mechanical connection without soldering. This package contains 100 terminals, suitable for volume wiring work on equipment, panels, and harnesses. It meets RoHS 2011/65/EU compliance standards, making it appropriate for both domestic and export equipment builds.

This terminal is used wherever quick-connect and quick-release wiring is required: HVAC controls, motor leads, appliance wiring, electrical panels, and light commercial equipment. The male spade configuration mates with standard female disconnect receptacles. The blue vinyl insulation identifies the 16-14 AWG wire range at a glance, which helps speed up wiring sequences on multi-circuit installs. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment service pros commonly stock these for field repairs and OEM-style harness replacements.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard male quick-disconnect terminal for use with 16-14 AWG conductors and any female receptacle accepting a 1/4 inch tab. Suitable for general electrical, HVAC control wiring, and light commercial equipment harness applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified HVAC technicians. Always de-energize the circuit and verify absence of voltage before terminating or removing any disconnect. Use a proper ratcheting crimp tool sized for the 16-14 AWG range to ensure a full, gas-tight crimp on the barrel. Do not attempt to crimp with pliers or general-purpose tools, as an incomplete crimp can result in a high-resistance joint or pull-out failure.
