Nsi Industries S8-10N Nylon Spade Terminal 8 Awg

Product Description

The NSI Industries S8-10N is a nylon-insulated spade terminal designed for 8 AWG wire and a No. 10 stud size. Spade terminals of this type provide a secure, semi-permanent connection at terminal blocks, bus bars, and equipment binding posts. The nylon insulation sleeve protects the crimp barrel, reduces the risk of accidental contact with adjacent conductors, and helps resist vibration-induced loosening. Electricians and panel technicians use these terminals when a connection must be made and broken at a stud without cutting the wire.

This terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work, including control panel wiring, grounding connections, and equipment terminations where a reliable ring-free spade connection is required. The No. 10 stud size fits common machine screws and terminal block posts found in load centers, junction boxes, and motor control enclosures. It is appropriate for indoor electrical applications where a neat, insulated termination is specified.

Key Features

• Nylon insulation sleeve for protection and vibration resistance at the crimp barrel
• Sized for 8 AWG wire with a No. 10 stud opening
• Spade-style tongue allows installation and removal without fully removing the stud fastener
• Suitable for terminal blocks, bus bars, and equipment binding posts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock terminal for 8 AWG wiring applications requiring a No. 10 stud spade connection in residential and commercial electrical panels and enclosures.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit and verify absence of voltage before terminating conductors. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for insulated spade terminals to ensure a proper crimp. Do not over-crimp, as this can damage the nylon sleeve and reduce mechanical holding strength.
