Thomas Betts D8-10 Non-insulated Ring Terminal 8 Awg

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS D8-10 is a non-insulated circular ring terminal designed for crimp termination of 8 AWG copper conductors. It provides a secure, low-resistance connection at a number 10 stud and is built with a copper contact plated with TiN (titanium nitride) for corrosion resistance and reliable conductivity. At 1.09 inches long and 0.42 inches wide, this compact terminal suits tight panel spaces and enclosures. Electricians and industrial maintenance technicians use this terminal to terminate wire runs to bus bars, grounding lugs, and equipment terminals. It meets UL 486A, UL 486B, and CSA 22.2 standards and carries a UL Listed rating, making it appropriate for code-compliant electrical installations.

This ring terminal is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical work wherever a permanent, vibration-resistant crimp lug is required at a number 10 stud. Common applications include control panels, motor terminations, grounding connections, and power distribution assemblies. The non-insulated design is preferred when terminals will be installed inside an insulated connector housing or where a separate sleeve is applied after crimping. It is sold in packages of 25 units.

Key Features

• Non-insulated design for use with separate insulation sleeves or within connector housings
• Crimp connection rated for 8 AWG wire, ensuring a gas-tight, low-resistance termination
• Copper contact with TiN plating for corrosion resistance and extended service life
• Fits number 10 stud size, compatible with common panel and equipment termination points
• Compliant with UL 486A, UL 486B, UL 94 V-0, CSA 22.2, CSA Certified, and RoHS requirements
• Flammability rated UL 94 V-0 for use in enclosed electrical assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style crimp ring terminal for 8 AWG conductors terminating at a number 10 stud in standard electrical panel, grounding, and equipment wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician following NEC requirements for wire terminations. De-energize and lock out the circuit before installing or removing terminals. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool sized for 8 AWG non-insulated terminals to achieve a proper gas-tight crimp — do not use pliers or uncalibrated tooling. Inspect the crimped barrel for deformation or conductor pullout before energizing the circuit.
