The terminal features a partially insulated nylon sleeve in red, which is the standard color code for 18-to-14 AWG wire range. It accepts a 1\/4 inch stud and is rated for 600 volts. The copper contact core is plated with TiN for improved conductivity and resistance to corrosion. Electricians and panel technicians use this terminal to create secure, vibration-resistant wire-to-stud connections on terminal blocks, bus bars, and equipment panels. Each package contains 100 pieces, making it practical for production or service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fork terminal is suited for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical panels, control boards, and wiring harnesses where a removable stud connection is required. The open-fork design allows the terminal to slide under a binding screw or stud without fully removing the fastener, saving time during installation and service. It is commonly installed during panel builds, motor control wiring, and equipment retrofits where a clean and code-compliant crimp connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePartially insulated nylon sleeve rated UL 94 V-2 for flame resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e600-volt rating suitable for standard electrical panel and control wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch stud size with a fork width of 0.44 inches for broad stud compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN-plated copper contact for reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCrimp connection type for fast, tooled termination without soldering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed color coding identifies 18-14 AWG wire range at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 100-piece package for high-volume wiring work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style crimp fork terminal for use with 1\/4 inch studs across residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical termination applications. Consult the wire gauge range printed on the terminal or manufacturer documentation to confirm proper crimp tool and wire size match before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC guidelines and any applicable local electrical codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating wires. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool sized for the terminal and wire gauge to ensure a proper mechanical crimp. Do not over-tighten the stud fastener beyond the hardware manufacturer's specified torque, and inspect the insulation sleeve after crimping to confirm it has not cracked or shifted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTerminal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard Fork\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStud Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFork Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.44 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.95 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Plating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulation Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Partially Insulated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulation Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Crimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: CSA 22.2, CSA Certified, RoHS Compliant, UL 486A, UL 486B, UL 94 V-2, UL File E9809, UL Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: THOMAS BETTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: RA18-14F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"THOMAS \u0026 BETTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540152287538,"sku":"RA18-14F","price":167.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/28e9d9103d591a91e62b6fe5446bbd17.jpg?v=1785847232","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/thomas-betts-ra18-14f-fork-terminal-red-nylon-1-4-inch-600v-100pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
