Diversitech DIVE-6229 Female Slip-on Terminal 16-14 Awg

Product Description

The DIVERSITECH DIVE-6229 is a vinyl-insulated female slip-on terminal designed for fast, reliable electrical connections in HVAC, refrigeration, and general electrical service work. It accepts 16 to 14 AWG wire and fits a 1/4 inch tab connector, making it a staple in control wiring and component replacement tasks. The vinyl insulation provides a snug, protective sleeve over the crimp joint to reduce the risk of accidental contact and corrosion. HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers routinely stock these terminals for field repairs and panel wiring jobs where a quick, secure disconnect is needed.

This terminal is suited for residential and light commercial applications where 16 to 14 AWG control or power wiring terminates at a male tab connector. Common install scenarios include contactor coil leads, transformer secondary wiring, fan motor connections, and control board wiring harnesses. The slip-on design allows for tool-free disconnection during component swaps, speeding up service calls without compromising connection integrity.

Key Features

• Accepts 16 to 14 AWG wire for a secure crimp connection
• Fits standard 1/4 inch male tab connectors used across HVAC and electrical components
• Vinyl insulation sleeve protects the crimp joint from moisture and accidental contact
• Slip-on design enables tool-free disconnection during service and component replacement
• Compact form factor suitable for tight wiring compartments in air handlers, furnaces, and panels

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement female slip-on terminal for use with 1/4 inch male tab connectors found on HVAC controls, motors, contactors, and general electrical components wired with 16 to 14 AWG conductors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or HVAC technician following applicable NEC requirements. Always de-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before removing or installing terminals. Use a proper wire stripper and ratcheting crimp tool sized for 16 to 14 AWG to ensure a gas-tight crimp. Avoid over-inserting the wire past the crimp barrel, and confirm the terminal seats fully onto the male tab before restoring power.
