Value Collection E1008-YELLOW Wire Ferrule 18 Awg Yellow 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION E1008-YELLOW is a partially insulated electrical wire ferrule designed to terminate stranded wire ends before insertion into terminal blocks, push-in connectors, or other panel-mount connection points. Each ferrule uses a crimp connection and fits 18 AWG (1 mm2) stranded conductors. The copper contact is tin-plated for corrosion resistance and reliable conductivity. The nylon insulation sleeve is yellow, which serves as a standard color-code reference for 18 AWG sizing in multi-conductor panel work. This pack contains 100 ferrules, making it practical for panel builds, control wiring, and retrofit service calls where consistent, code-quality terminations are required.

These ferrules are used in residential and commercial electrical panels, HVAC control boards, programmable logic controller (PLC) enclosures, low-voltage wiring harnesses, and building automation system terminations. Electricians and controls technicians install them wherever stranded wire must be cleanly terminated into screw-cage or spring-cage terminal blocks to prevent wire strand splaying and intermittent connections. The yellow insulation color allows fast visual identification of 18 AWG circuits during installation and troubleshooting.

Key Features

• Crimp connection type for fast, reliable mechanical and electrical termination
• Partially insulated nylon sleeve in yellow for 18 AWG color-code identification
• Tin-plated copper contact resists oxidation and maintains low contact resistance
• Pin length of 0.315 inches (8.0 mm) suits standard terminal block insertion depths
• Pin diameter of 1.4 mm fits common 18 AWG terminal block entry ports
• Packed 100 per unit — suitable for panel builds and multi-circuit termination jobs
• Meets UL standards for electrical component use

Compatibility

Designed for use with 18 AWG stranded copper conductors (1 mm2 cross-section) in standard crimp-style ferrule applications. Fits terminal blocks and connection points that accept a 1.4 mm pin diameter.

Installation Notes

Ferrule installation requires a ratcheting ferrule crimp tool sized for 18 AWG or 1 mm2 terminals — do not use general-purpose pliers, as an improper crimp can cause loose connections or insulation damage. Strip conductor insulation to match the ferrule pin length before insertion. Always de-energize the panel or circuit before terminating wires in live enclosures, in accordance with NEC lockout/tagout requirements. Verify terminal block entry diameter accepts a 1.4 mm pin prior to bulk installation.
