Panduit dvf14-250-m Female Disconnect 16-14 Awg 1000 Pack

Product Description

The PANDUIT dvf14-250-m is a vibration-resistant female disconnect terminal designed for secure wire-to-tab connections in electrical and control wiring applications. The terminal body is constructed from tin-plated brass with a blue vinyl barrel insulation, supporting a wire range of 16 to 14 AWG. The funnel entry barrel configuration guides the wire into the crimp zone cleanly, reducing mis-crimps and rework. A sleeved insulation grip barrel adds mechanical strain relief at the conductor entry point. This terminal is rated to 194 degrees F and meets UL and CSA C22.2 approvals, making it suitable for use in listed panel assemblies and equipment wiring.

This female disconnect is used in residential, commercial, and industrial electrical wiring where spade-style push-on connections are required. Typical applications include control panel wiring, appliance internal wiring, HVAC equipment controls, and automotive or industrial harness assemblies. The 0.25-inch tab width fits standard quick-disconnect receptacles. The terminal is packaged in quantities of 1000, making it appropriate for production wiring, panel shops, or high-volume service work. The blue color coding identifies the 16-14 AWG wire range at a glance during assembly and inspection.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 16-14 AWG conductors and standard 0.25-inch male spade tab terminals. Compatible with typical quick-disconnect tab connections found in HVAC controls, appliance wiring, and industrial panel assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified wiring technicians. De-energize all circuits before terminating conductors. Use a ratcheting crimp tool rated for insulated vinyl terminals in the 16-14 AWG range to ensure a full, consistent crimp. Do not solder after crimping, as this can compromise the mechanical integrity of the insulation grip sleeve.
