Thomas Betts ADR6 Square Ring Terminal 14-6 Awg

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS ADR6 is a non-insulated square ring terminal designed for compression-style wire terminations in electrical wiring applications. It accepts wire sizes from 14 to 6 AWG and features an aluminum contact with a titanium nitride (TiN) plating for reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The terminal measures 1-3/64 inches in overall length and 1/2 inch in width, with a stud hole sized for 1/4-inch fasteners. At 0.0122 pounds, it is a lightweight single-piece termination component installed by licensed electricians and electrical contractors on panel connections, equipment grounding, and conductor terminations.

This square ring terminal is suited for use in residential and commercial electrical installations where a non-insulated compression lug is required. It is appropriate for panel boards, junction boxes, and equipment termination points where conductors ranging from 14 to 6 AWG must be secured to a 1/4-inch stud. The compression connection style requires a proper crimping tool to achieve a reliable, gas-tight connection. The aluminum contact material makes it a practical choice for aluminum or copper conductor terminations in low-voltage branch circuit and equipment grounding applications.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard compression ring terminal for residential and commercial electrical applications requiring a non-insulated 14 to 6 AWG square ring lug with a 1/4-inch stud size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating any conductors. Use a calibrated compression crimping tool rated for the wire gauge being terminated — do not use pliers or non-rated tools, as an improper crimp can result in a high-resistance or unsafe connection. Verify stud torque requirements per the equipment manufacturer's specifications before final assembly.
