Value Collection BOW-23826 Ring Terminal 16-14 Awg

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BOW-23826 is a partially insulated circular ring terminal designed for crimp-style wire connections in electrical wiring applications. The terminal features a copper contact for reliable conductivity and a blue heat-shrink polyolefin insulation sleeve that provides a secure, partially insulated finish after crimping. It accepts 16 to 14 AWG wire and fits a No. 10 stud size. This type of terminal is commonly installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and other trade professionals when terminating control wiring, panel wiring, or equipment harnesses.

This ring terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where a clean, mechanically sound ring lug connection is required. Typical applications include control panel wiring, motor wiring, and equipment grounding connections. The No. 10 stud size fits common screw terminal blocks and equipment binding posts. The blue color coding follows standard AWG color conventions for 16 to 14 AWG wire, making identification straightforward during installation and service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or trade technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before terminating or replacing any wiring connections. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for the wire gauge to ensure a proper mechanical and electrical crimp. Do not attempt to solder over a crimped connection, as this can create stress fractures in the wire at the crimp barrel.
