Panduit PNF10-10F-L Fork Terminal Funnel Entry

Product Description

The PANDUIT PNF10-10F-L is a fork terminal with funnel entry construction, designed for reliable mechanical and electrical connections in wiring and termination applications. Fork terminals of this type accept a screw or stud through the open slot, allowing the connection to be made or broken without fully removing the fastener. The funnel entry design guides wire strands into the barrel during crimping, reducing the chance of stray strands and improving termination quality. This terminal is sold individually and is installed by licensed electricians and experienced wiring technicians.

Fork terminals are used in panel wiring, control cabinets, equipment grounding, and general electrical termination work across residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. The funnel entry feature makes this terminal well suited for production environments and field service work where consistent, repeatable crimps are required. It is compatible with standard crimping tools appropriate for the terminal wire gauge and stud size indicated in the part number.

Key Features

• Fork tongue design allows connection without full fastener removal
• Funnel entry barrel guides wire strands for cleaner, more reliable crimps
• Sold as individual units for flexible quantity purchasing
• Suitable for panel wiring, control cabinet terminations, and grounding applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fork terminal for use in electrical wiring, control panel, and termination applications requiring a funnel entry crimp terminal.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lockout the circuit before installing or replacing any terminal connection. Use a calibrated crimping tool rated for the wire gauge and terminal series to ensure a secure crimp. Inspect the finished crimp for full barrel closure and absence of stray wire strands before restoring power.
