The red nylon insulation sleeve covers the crimp barrel, leaving the fork contact exposed for secure stud mounting. Built with a copper contact body and tin (TiN) plating, this terminal provides reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance in panel wiring, control circuits, and equipment hookups. Rated at 600 volts, it meets both UL Listed and CSA Certified standards. This item ships in a package quantity of 50 terminals per pack, making it suitable for service vehicles and shop stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis locking fork terminal is used wherever a secure, vibration-resistant ring-style connection is required but with the added retention of a locking fork design. The number 8 stud size fits common machine screws and terminal block studs found in residential and light commercial electrical panels, HVAC control boards, motor wiring, and low-voltage equipment enclosures. The red color coding indicates compatibility with wire gauge ranges standard to that insulation color designation. Electricians and HVAC technicians commonly use these terminals for field wiring connections that require a tool-free disconnect with locked retention at the stud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLocking fork design resists accidental disconnection under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper contact body with TiN plating for conductivity and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePartially insulated nylon sleeve protects the crimp barrel while leaving the fork exposed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated at 600 volts for use in standard electrical wiring applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNumber 8 stud size fits common panel and equipment terminal studs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL Listed and CSA Certified for code-compliant installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard crimp-style locking fork terminal suitable for number 8 stud connections in residential and light commercial electrical and HVAC wiring applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by electricians or HVAC technicians using a properly sized ratcheting or hex crimp tool matched to the terminal barrel. Always de-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before terminating or removing connections. Ensure the wire gauge is stripped to the correct length and fully seated in the crimp barrel before crimping. Follow NEC requirements for terminal ratings, wire gauge compatibility, and torque specifications at the stud fastener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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\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\u003eStud Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 volts\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\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL Listed, CSA Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BD-18361\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715418947890,"sku":"BD-18361","price":53.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1387a1cbc85e69f037e155e448d18e22_1f401e80-e460-4867-b18e-9daa89d7d8d8.jpg?v=1788513628","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-bd-18361-locking-fork-terminal-8-stud-50pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
