Abb TV18-6R-L Insulated Vinyl Ring Terminal

Product Description

The ABB TV18-6R-L is an insulated vinyl ring terminal designed for secure, insulated wire terminations in electrical wiring applications. The vinyl insulation sleeve protects the connection point from moisture, abrasion, and incidental contact, reducing the risk of short circuits. Designed for 18 AWG wire, this ring terminal provides a reliable mechanical and electrical connection between a conductor and a threaded stud or screw. Electricians and panel technicians install these terminals using a ratchet-style crimping tool to achieve consistent, gas-tight crimps.

Ring terminals in this class are commonly used in residential and commercial electrical panels, control panels, HVAC equipment wiring, and industrial equipment assemblies. The ring style allows the terminal to stay captured on the fastener even when the screw is loosened, making it well suited for applications where vibration or service access is a factor. These terminals are typically installed in bundles and are well suited for high-volume wiring jobs where consistency and speed matter.

Key Features

• Vinyl insulation sleeve provides protection against moisture, abrasion, and accidental contact
• Ring-style lug keeps the terminal captured on the fastener stud during installation and service
• Suitable for 18 AWG conductors
• Available in a pack of 500 for high-volume wiring applications
• Crimp-style installation compatible with standard ratchet crimping tools

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style ring terminal for use with 18 AWG wire in residential and commercial electrical wiring, control panel assembly, and HVAC equipment terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before terminating any conductors. Use a calibrated ratchet crimping tool sized for the terminal gauge to ensure a full, gas-tight crimp. Do not use pliers or non-ratcheting tools as substitutes, as an incomplete crimp can cause high-resistance connections or pull-out failures.
