Value Collection BD-18337 D-shaped Ring Terminal 12-10 Awg

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-18337 is a partially insulated, D-shaped ring terminal designed for secure crimp connections in electrical wiring applications. Built with a copper contact and a TiN (titanium nitride) plating, this terminal provides reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The nylon insulation sleeve partially covers the barrel, offering both protection and visibility of the crimp zone during installation. Each terminal accepts wire sizes from 12 to 10 AWG and fits a 1/2-inch stud. This package contains 25 terminals, making it suitable for panel builds, service work, and multi-point terminations on a single job.

This terminal is used in residential and commercial electrical installations where a looped, D-shaped connection to a stud or lug is required. Common applications include control panels, junction boxes, motor wiring, and equipment grounding. The 12 to 10 AWG range covers standard branch-circuit and equipment wire gauges frequently encountered in HVAC, electrical service, and industrial control work. The yellow color coding identifies the 12 to 10 AWG range per standard terminal color conventions, speeding up identification on the job.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 12 to 10 AWG wire and 1/2-inch mounting studs in standard crimp-termination applications across residential and commercial electrical systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit and verify with a meter before terminating any conductors. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool sized for the terminal barrel and wire gauge to achieve a proper, gas-tight crimp. Avoid over-stripping wire insulation beyond the barrel depth, and confirm the stud nut is torqued to the lug or equipment manufacturer specification.
