Panduit PNF18-6F-C Ring Tongue Terminal

Product Description

The PANDUIT PNF18-6F-C is a ring tongue terminal designed for secure, reliable electrical terminations in panel wiring, control cabinets, and general electrical assemblies. Ring tongue terminals create a closed-loop connection that stays captured on a stud or screw, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection under vibration or mechanical stress. This terminal is suited for electricians and panel builders working on industrial controls, power distribution, and field wiring applications where connection integrity is critical.

Ring tongue terminals like the PNF18-6F-C are used in residential, commercial, and industrial electrical work wherever a conductor needs a permanent, fastened termination point. Typical applications include control panel wiring, motor starter connections, grounding terminations, and equipment harnessing. The terminal accepts a stripped wire end that is crimped to form a gas-tight mechanical bond between the conductor and the terminal barrel.

Key Features

• Closed-ring tongue design keeps the terminal captured on the mounting stud during installation
• Crimp-style termination provides a reliable, gas-tight conductor connection
• Suitable for panel wiring, control cabinets, and electrical assembly applications
• Manufactured by PANDUIT, a recognized name in electrical termination and wire management products

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ring tongue terminal for electrical panels, control assemblies, and general wiring applications compatible with the applicable wire gauge and stud size for this series.

Installation Notes

Ring tongue terminals are installed by licensed electricians or qualified panel builders in accordance with NEC requirements. Power down and lock out the circuit before terminating any conductor. Use a calibrated ratchet crimping tool appropriate for the terminal series to ensure a proper gas-tight crimp. Do not re-crimp a terminal that has already been crimped onto a conductor.
