    Tight-Hold Heat-Shrink Spade Terminals

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Terminals, Ferrules, and Lugs. Tight-Hold Heat-Shrink Spade Terminals.
    The best spade terminals for preventing wire pullout and loose connections. A combination of crimping, heat shrink, and solder makes the wire extra rigid and secure. First, squeeze the barrel onto the wire so it stays put when tugged, vibrated, or under tension for long periods. (Use a crimping tool to avoid a damaged barrel and loose connection.) When you apply heat, the plastic seals and grips the stranded wire while the enclosed solder melts it into a solid, rigid wire that's even tougher to twist or bend.
    Spade terminals are faster to install than ring terminals because they don't require you to remove the screw from the terminal block or other connection point.
    Polyolefin Insulation—The durable plastic prevents short circuits and maintains a tight seal on the wire when exposed to high temperatures, heavy vibration, and long-term wear and tear from maintenance and adjustment.

    Tight-Hold Heat-Shrink Locking Spade Terminals

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Terminals, Ferrules, and Lugs. Tight-Hold Heat-Shrink Locking Spade Terminals.
    These terminals grip the wire more tightly and are easier to install than other locking spade terminals. A combination of crimping, heat shrink, and solder makes the wire extra rigid and secure. First, squeeze the barrel onto the wire so it stays put when tugged, vibrated, or under tension for long periods. (Use a crimping tool to avoid a damaged barrel and loose connection.) When you apply heat, the plastic seals and grips the stranded wire while the enclosed solder melts it into a solid, rigid wire that's even tougher to twist or bend.
    For easy installation, slide the two forks past the screw. The forks will snap onto the shank, keeping the terminal aligned and secure without your help.

    Our best quick-disconnect terminals for preventing wire pullout and loose connections. A combination of crimping, heat shrink, and solder makes the wire extra rigid and secure. First, squeeze the barrel onto the wire so it stays put when tugged, vibrated, or under tension for long periods. (Use a crimping tool to avoid a damaged barrel and loose connection.) When you apply heat, the plastic seals and grips the stranded wire while the enclosed solder melts it into a solid, rigid wire that's even tougher to twist or bend. These terminals pair with other quick-disconnect terminals, so you can pop them apart whenever you need to break a connection.
    Polyolefin Insulation—The durable plastic prevents short circuits and maintains a tight seal on the wire when exposed to high temperatures, heavy vibration, and long-term wear and tear from maintenance and adjustment.
    Fully Insulated—Plastic covers the entire surface of the terminal, including the connection tab, so there’s no exposed metal to spark or short circuit when connecting to another terminal.
    Barrel Insulated—The wire is covered in plastic so it won't short circuit if touched by a screwdriver, nail, or another live wire.
