Thomas Betts B14-6F Fork Terminal 600V Non-insulated 100pk

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS B14-6F is a non-insulated, crimp-style standard fork terminal designed for secure, permanent electrical connections in panel wiring, control circuits, and wire termination applications. Rated at 600 volts, it features a copper contact body with a tin (TiN) plating for corrosion resistance and reliable conductivity. The fork opening accommodates a number 6 stud, with a fork width of 0.31 inches and an overall length of 0.75 inches. This terminal is installed by electricians and panel builders using a calibrated crimping tool on stripped wire ends. It ships in a 100-piece package.

The B14-6F suits residential and commercial electrical panel wiring, control board terminations, and industrial wire harness assembly where a non-insulated fork terminal is the specified connection type. The crimp connection method provides a gas-tight, vibration-resistant joint without soldering. The blue color coding aids in quick visual identification during installation and inspection. Applications include motor control centers, junction boxes, switchgear, and low-voltage control wiring where a number 6 stud termination is required.

Key Features

• 600-volt rating suitable for standard branch circuit and control wiring applications
• Copper contact material with TiN plating for corrosion resistance and stable contact surface
• Crimp connection type creates a gas-tight, vibration-resistant termination without solder
• Non-insulated design for use where separate sleeving or insulation is applied after termination
• Number 6 stud size with 0.31-inch fork width for precise mechanical fit
• UL 486A, UL 486B, and CSA 22.2 certified; RoHS compliant; UL 94 V-0 rated

Compatibility

Designed as a standard crimp fork terminal for use with number 6 stud fasteners in residential, commercial, and industrial electrical termination applications where a non-insulated 600-volt-rated fork terminal is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician or qualified panel technician. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating any wire. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool sized to the wire gauge and terminal specification to achieve a proper gas-tight crimp. Do not solder over a crimped connection, as this can introduce brittleness and defeat the mechanical integrity of the crimp joint.
