Panduit pv18-4r-cy Ring Terminal 22-18 Awg No. 4 Stud

Product Description

The PANDUIT pv18-4r-cy is a vinyl-insulated ring terminal designed for use with 22 to 18 AWG wire and a No. 4 stud size. The funnel entry design guides wire strands into the barrel during insertion, reducing mis-insertions and speeding up termination work. This terminal is suited for low-voltage control wiring, panel wiring, and general electrical connections where a secure, insulated ring-style lug is required. Electricians and panel builders use this terminal in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. Terminals are packaged in quantities of 100.

This ring terminal fits standard No. 4 threaded studs and accepts wire in the 22 to 18 AWG range. It is commonly installed on terminal blocks, bus bars, equipment chassis, and control panel grounding points. The vinyl insulation provides basic protection against abrasion and incidental contact at the termination point. Its funnel entry barrel is well suited for production environments and field service work where consistent, repeatable crimps are needed across a large number of connections.

Key Features

• Accepts 22 to 18 AWG wire for a versatile fit across common control wire sizes
• No. 4 stud size for compatibility with standard hardware fasteners
• Vinyl insulation provides abrasion resistance and basic electrical isolation at the lug
• Funnel entry barrel guides wire strands for consistent crimp placement
• Packaged in quantities of 100 for production and service use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style ring terminal replacement for use with 22 to 18 AWG wire on No. 4 threaded stud connections in low-voltage electrical and control wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified technicians using a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for insulated terminals in the 22 to 18 AWG range. Always de-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating or replacing ring terminals. Verify that the wire gauge and stud size match the terminal specification before crimping. Do not re-crimp a terminal once it has been compressed, as this can compromise the mechanical and electrical integrity of the connection.
