Value Collection LSNYDS1-4 Locking Fork Terminal

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LSNYDS1-4 is a locking fork terminal designed for crimp-style wire terminations in low-voltage electrical and control wiring applications. Built with a copper contact and partially insulated nylon sleeve in red, it accepts wire sizes from 0.50 to 1.50 square millimeters and is rated for 600 volts. The locking fork design secures the terminal to a No. 8 stud, preventing accidental disconnection under vibration or incidental contact. Overall length is 0.866 inches with a fork width of 0.283 inches. Electricians and control-panel technicians use this terminal where a secure, tool-removable connection is required on a threaded stud or screw post.

This terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical panels, HVAC control wiring, instrumentation enclosures, and industrial control cabinets where a No. 8 stud termination point is present. The red color coding helps identify wire gauge range at a glance during installation and service. It is appropriate for any application requiring a UL Listed, RoHS Compliant crimp terminal at 600 volts or below on copper conductors in the 0.50 to 1.50 square millimeter wire size range.

Key Features

• Locking fork design prevents terminal from falling free of the stud before fastener is tightened
• Rated 600 volts with UL Listed and cUL Listed certification
• RoHS Compliant copper contact material
• Partially insulated red nylon sleeve for wire gauge identification and strain relief
• Accepts wire sizes 0.50 to 1.50 square millimeters via crimp termination
• Compatible with No. 8 stud size (4.30 mm)

Compatibility

Designed as a standard crimp-style locking fork terminal for use on No. 8 threaded studs or screw terminals where 0.50 to 1.50 square millimeter copper wire is being terminated at up to 600 volts.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electricians or qualified control-wiring technicians following applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before terminating or removing any wiring. Strip the wire to the correct length and use a calibrated ratchet crimp tool sized for the terminal barrel to ensure a gas-tight crimp. Do not solder over the crimp, and do not over-insert wire beyond the barrel to avoid contact with the insulation sleeve crimp zone.
