3M 7010397384 Ring Terminal 12-10 Awg Crimp Stud 6 50 Pack

Product Description

The 3M 7010397384 is a partially insulated circular ring terminal designed for secure crimp connections on copper conductors. It accepts 12 to 10 AWG wire and fits a Number 6 stud. The copper contact delivers reliable conductivity, while the yellow nylon insulation sleeve provides partial strain relief and helps with visual wire-gauge identification during installation. Electricians and panel technicians use this terminal when terminating branch circuit wiring, control wiring, or low-voltage connections at screw terminals, bus bars, or equipment grounds. Each package contains 50 terminals, making it practical for service calls and production wiring work alike.

This ring terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work, control panel assembly, and equipment wiring. Its crimp-style connection eliminates the need for solder and creates a mechanically strong, gas-tight joint when set with a calibrated ratcheting crimper. The Number 6 stud size is common on terminal blocks, grounding lugs, and smaller equipment binding posts. Installers working under NEC guidelines will find this terminal sized appropriately for 12 and 10 AWG conductors used in 15-amp and 20-amp circuits.

Key Features

• Partially insulated nylon sleeve in yellow for easy AWG identification
• Copper contact material for dependable conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Crimp connection type for fast, solder-free termination
• Compatible with 12 to 10 AWG wire
• Number 6 stud size for common terminal block and equipment applications
• Sold in a 50-piece package to support multi-point wiring jobs

Compatibility

Designed for use with 12 to 10 AWG copper conductors terminated at Number 6 stud hardware. Typical applications include control panels, terminal blocks, and equipment grounding points requiring a partially insulated ring-style lug.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified technician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any termination. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimping tool sized for the wire gauge to achieve a proper crimp; do not substitute pliers or uncalibrated tools. Inspect the insulation sleeve after crimping to confirm it has not cracked or split.
