Value Collection BD-18347 Fork Terminal 10 Stud Crimp 50 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-18347 is a standard fork terminal designed for secure, low-profile wire terminations in electrical panels, control cabinets, and wiring harnesses. The crimp connection type delivers a reliable mechanical and electrical bond without soldering. The nylon insulation sleeve is partially insulated, exposing the barrel for visual inspection of wire seating during installation. Rated at 600 volts, the terminal uses a copper contact with a tin nitride (TiN) plating for corrosion resistance and solid conductivity. This package contains 50 terminals, suitable for batch wiring jobs on commercial and industrial electrical projects.

These fork terminals are suited for residential and commercial electrical work where a #10 stud size fastener is used. Common applications include grounding lugs, terminal blocks, bus bar connections, and panel wiring. The blue color-coding indicates a mid-range wire gauge range consistent with industry color standards for partially insulated fork terminals. Electricians and panel technicians use these terminals where a removable spade-style connection is preferred over a ring terminal, allowing removal of the wire without fully extracting the stud or screw.

Key Features

• Rated at 600 volts for panel and control wiring applications
• Partially insulated nylon sleeve allows visual confirmation of wire insertion before crimping
• Copper contact with TiN plating resists corrosion and maintains conductivity
• #10 stud size fits standard panel screws and terminal block studs
• Crimp connection type eliminates the need for soldering during installation
• CSA Certified and UL Listed for code-compliant installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock terminal for use with #10 stud electrical connections in residential and commercial wiring assemblies, control panels, and terminal block applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating or inspecting any connections. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool appropriate for the wire gauge and terminal type to ensure full barrel compression and a gas-tight joint. Do not use pliers or uncalibrated tools as substitutes for a proper crimper, as an incomplete crimp can result in a high-resistance connection or mechanical failure.
