Ideal 83-7101 Vinyl Snap Spade Terminal

Product Description

The IDEAL 83-7101 is a vinyl snap spade terminal designed for making secure, removable electrical connections to screw terminals and binding posts. The snap-style design allows the terminal to lock onto the fastener without fully removing the screw, speeding up installation and service work. Constructed with a vinyl insulated barrel, this terminal provides basic insulation protection at the connection point. Electricians and low-voltage technicians use this type of terminal across control wiring, panel wiring, and equipment grounding applications.

Vinyl snap spade terminals like the 83-7101 are commonly used in residential and light commercial electrical work, including panel boards, HVAC control wiring, and general equipment hookups. The snap spade style is well suited to situations where connections need to be made and broken repeatedly during commissioning, service, or equipment replacement without the need for specialty tooling.

Key Features

• Snap-style spade design locks onto screw without full removal for faster termination
• Vinyl insulated barrel for basic electrical insulation at the connection point
• Reusable connection suitable for service and maintenance applications
• Compatible with standard crimp tooling used for insulated terminals

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service terminal for use in residential and light commercial electrical and control wiring applications requiring an insulated snap spade connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with NEC guidelines. De-energize the circuit before crimping or connecting any terminal. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for vinyl insulated terminals to ensure a gas-tight crimp. Do not solder over a crimped insulated terminal as heat can degrade the vinyl sleeve.
