Thomas & Betts 188770 D71 Ring Terminal 8 AWG

Description:

The Thomas & Betts D71 Ring Terminal is used to provide a secure crimped electrical connection for 8 AWG copper conductors to 1/4-inch stud terminals in power distribution and control circuits. Commonly installed in industrial control panels, motor control centers, switchgear, transformers, HVAC equipment, and commercial electrical systems, this Sta-Kon® non-insulated ring terminal features a brazed seam, serrated barrel for superior wire retention and an electro tin-plated copper construction for long-lasting conductivity and corrosion resistance. Electricians, maintenance technicians, and system integrators use this terminal for new installations, repairs, retrofits, and replacement of ring-type wire terminations.

Applications:

The Thomas & Betts D71 is designed for terminating 8 AWG copper conductors to 1/4-inch stud connections in low-voltage electrical installations. Its closed-ring design provides a vibration-resistant connection that minimizes accidental disconnection, making it ideal for switchboards, control panels, industrial machinery, motor controls, transformers, automation systems, and electrical distribution equipment requiring dependable crimped wire terminations.
