It uses a crimp connection method and accepts a No. 8 stud size. The terminal is partially insulated with blue vinyl insulation and features a copper contact with TiN (titanium nitride) plating for corrosion resistance and reliable conductivity. Rated at 600 volts, this terminal is well suited for panel wiring, control circuits, and equipment grounding tasks where a positive mechanical lock on the stud is required. Licensed electricians and panel technicians are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis locking fork terminal is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical applications wherever a standard spade terminal is insufficient due to vibration or accidental disconnection risk. The locking design keeps the terminal seated on the stud even under movement or shock loads. It is commonly installed in motor control centers, junction boxes, and electrical panels where wire management and connection integrity are priorities. Each package contains 75 terminals with a minimum order quantity of 1 package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocking fork design prevents terminal from backing off the stud under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrimp connection for fast, consistent termination without soldering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper contact with TiN plating for corrosion resistance and long-term conductivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue vinyl partial insulation rated to 600 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoHS compliant and UL 94 V-0 rated insulation material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of 75 terminals per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use locking fork terminal for No. 8 stud connections in residential, commercial, and industrial electrical wiring assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed electrician following applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit and verify absence of voltage before terminating or removing any wiring. Use a calibrated ratchet crimp tool rated for the wire gauge being terminated to ensure a proper mechanical and electrical crimp. Do not over-strip wire insulation, as excess exposed conductor beyond the terminal barrel can create a shock or short-circuit hazard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTerminal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Locking Fork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Crimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStud Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 volts\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: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\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 (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFork Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.283 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.886 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.031 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 75\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: RoHS Compliant, UL 94 V-0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: TV14-8LF-XV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"THOMAS \u0026 BETTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543137648946,"sku":"TV14-8LF-XV","price":64.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f6a1bbeff37b7573a660a00f37d6f99c.jpg?v=1785916309","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/thomas-betts-tv14-8lf-xv-locking-fork-terminal-8-stud","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
