Panduit dnf18-206fib-3k Female Disconnect 22-18 Awg 600V

Product Description

The PANDUIT dnf18-206fib-3k is a fully insulated female disconnect terminal designed for reliable wire termination in electrical control panels, equipment wiring, and general-purpose wiring applications. This funnel entry style terminal accepts conductors from 22 AWG minimum to 18 AWG maximum and carries a 600-volt rating. The tin-plated brass barrel with a butted seam construction ensures solid electrical contact, while the red nylon insulation provides both wire polarity identification and protection against accidental contact. Electricians and panel wiring technicians install these terminals using standard hand or pneumatic crimp tooling. The package contains 3000 terminals.

This terminal is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial wiring tasks where a secure, insulated female disconnect is required. The funnel entry barrel opening guides wire insertion quickly during high-volume termination runs, reducing mislabeled or misaligned crimps. The 0.187/0.205-inch by 0.02-inch tab size accepts standard male quick-disconnect tabs. The red color coding aligns with the 22-18 AWG range for fast field identification. Typical use environments include control panel assembly, appliance wiring, and general low-voltage equipment harness work.

Key Features

• Funnel entry barrel design for guided, fast wire insertion during production or field termination
• Tin-plated brass barrel with butted seam for consistent crimp quality and corrosion resistance
• Red nylon full insulation rated for 22-18 AWG conductors and 600 volts
• Temperature rating of 221 degrees F for use in warm electrical enclosures
• RoHS compliant materials support environmental compliance requirements
• Standard pack of 3000 terminals supports high-volume panel and harness assembly

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 0.187/0.205-inch male quick-disconnect tabs and compatible with 22 AWG to 18 AWG copper conductors. Tab size is 0.187/0.205 inches by 0.02 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a crimp tool rated for nylon-insulated female disconnect terminals in the 22-18 AWG range. De-energize all circuits before terminating or inspecting connections. Strip wire to 9/32 inch as specified to ensure full barrel engagement after crimping. Follow applicable NEC requirements for terminal selection, wire gauge, and panel wiring methods.
