3M 7010397392 Fork Terminal Blue Vinyl 10 Stud Crimp

Product Description

The 3M 7010397392 is a standard fork terminal designed for crimp-style wire terminations in electrical wiring applications. The terminal features partial vinyl insulation in blue, a copper contact base with TiN (titanium nitride) plating, and a number 10 stud size. At 0.85 inches overall length with a 0.3-inch fork width and 0.03-inch thickness, this terminal is sized for compact panel wiring, control circuits, and equipment grounding connections. Electricians and panel builders use these terminals to create secure, vibration-resistant connections on threaded studs and binding posts without fully enclosed insulation sleeves.

This fork terminal is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical work where crimp terminations are required on number 10 hardware. Typical applications include control panel wiring, grounding lugs, terminal strips, and equipment leads. The blue color coding indicates a wire gauge range consistent with standard color-code conventions for this terminal series. Sold in a package quantity of 100, this terminal is appropriate for production wiring and service work where volume termination is common.

Key Features

• Copper contact material with TiN plating for reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance

• Number 10 stud size fits standard machine screws and binding posts
• 0.3-inch fork width accommodates typical number 10 hardware clearance
• CSA Certified and UL Listed — meets CSA LR22190 and UL File E23438
• RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant
• Package quantity of 100 for production and service volume

Compatibility

Designed for crimp installation on number 10 stud sizes in standard electrical panel, control wiring, and equipment termination applications where partially insulated vinyl fork terminals are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified technicians using a calibrated ratchet-style crimp tool appropriate for the wire gauge and terminal series. De-energize and lockout the circuit before terminating any conductors. Ensure the wire is fully stripped to the correct length and seated completely in the terminal barrel before crimping. Follow applicable NEC requirements for terminal and conductor sizing in the circuit being terminated.
