18 AWG Fork Terminal for #8 Stud

This 3M fork terminal accepts 18 to 22 AWG copper wire and fits a #8 stud. The bare copper barrel is tin plated and brazed for a secure crimp connection. It is UL listed and CSA certified for 600 V service.

Replaces damaged or undersized ring terminals

Use this fork when a ring terminal cannot be removed without disconnecting the stud. The open fork speeds installation on terminal blocks and bus bars where the screw stays in place. The brazed seam resists splitting under vibration.

Handles 600 V at up to 347 °F

The non insulated barrel suits enclosed panels where separate sleeving or heat shrink is applied. Red colour coding identifies the 18 AWG size at a glance. Not suited for conductors larger than 18 AWG or for insulated barrel requirements.

Questions about this item

Will the #8 stud hole and 0.25 in barrel fit my terminal block?

The fork terminal has a #8 stud size and a 0.25 in barrel length, so it fits standard #8 screws and terminal blocks with matching dimensions.

What crimp tool and wire range should I use for a solid connection?

Use a crimper rated for 22 to 18 AWG non-insulated terminals; strip the wire to match the 0.25 in barrel and crimp once on the brazed seam side for a secure joint.

Does the bare copper and tin finish need anti-oxidant paste or periodic re-crimping?

The tin-plated copper barrel resists oxidation up to 347 °F; no paste is required and the UL-listed crimp joint does not need scheduled re-crimping under normal conditions.
