Value Collection PTNYD1-12 Male Wire Disconnect 22-16 Awg

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PTNYD1-12 is a male quick-disconnect terminal designed for reliable electrical connections in low-voltage wiring applications. This partially insulated terminal features a nylon insulator in red and accepts 22-16 AWG wire via a double crimp connection method. The 0.075-inch tab width fits standard quick-disconnect receptacles. Constructed with a copper contact, it delivers solid conductivity in control wiring, panel wiring, and appliance harness applications. Electricians and HVAC technicians install these terminals when building or repairing wire harnesses that require fast, tool-free mating and separation at connection points.

This terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical and control wiring tasks. Common applications include HVAC control panels, appliance wiring, automotive-style harness repairs, and low-voltage circuit assemblies. The red nylon insulation provides a visual indicator for the 22-16 AWG wire gauge range and offers partial insulation protection at the barrel. These disconnects are sold individually but carry a minimum order quantity of 50 units, making them appropriate for service stock or panel production work.

Key Features

• Double crimp connection for secure mechanical and electrical termination
• Compatible with 22-16 AWG wire (0.50 to 1.50 sq mm)
• 0.075-inch tab width fits standard quick-disconnect receptacles
• Copper contact material for reliable conductivity
• Red nylon partial insulation for gauge identification and protection
• UL Listed and cUL Listed; RoHS Compliant

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 0.075-inch male quick-disconnect receptacles and compatible with 22-16 AWG wire gauges in low-voltage control and appliance wiring assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a ratcheting or plier-style wire terminal crimping tool rated for 22-16 AWG insulated terminals. Always de-energize the circuit before terminating or connecting any wiring. Double crimp terminals should be crimped first at the wire conductor barrel, then at the insulation support barrel for proper strain relief. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for terminal selection and wiring methods in the specific application.
