    Quick-Connect Terminal Blocks

    Snap wire into place with a clamp instead of fussing with a screw. Release the spring clamp with a screwdriver, insert the wire, and push the clamp back down for a secure hold. For an easier fit in the small gaps in the block, attach a ferrule, pin terminal, or blade terminal before installing.
    DIN Rail Mounting Adapters—Install terminal blocks on DIN 3 rail with these mounting brackets. You can mount two-circuit terminal blocks with one adapter. For all other blocks, you'll need two.

    Terminal Blocks

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Terminal Blocks. Terminal Blocks.
    Also known as barrier terminal strips, these blocks have dividers to separate live wires and keep your setup tidy. Mount them directly onto control panels, enclosures, and equipment.
    A screw or stud connection creates a tight hold on the wire. You can insert stripped wire directly or attach a terminal to prevent damage from the fastener. Ring, spade, and hook terminals fit around the shank and hang on tightly, even in high-vibration setups. Pin terminals, blade terminals, and wire ferrules are easier to secure with the screw or stud. However, they don't stay put as well as other terminals when vibrated or pulled.
    Covers—Snap onto the top of a terminal block to prevent accidental contact with a live wire. These covers include mounting clips that fit between the block and mounting screws.
    Markers—Label your terminal block connections so you can identify them at a glance. These markers extend from underneath the terminal block.

    Over-Barrier Jumper—Fit these jumpers over terminal block dividers to leave free space on the side. They connect adjacent terminals so you can connect multiple components with a single wire.
    Around-Barrier Jumper—These jumpers bend around the divider for a lower profile than over-barrier jumpers. They connect adjacent terminals so you can connect multiple components with a single wire.

    Enclosure-Mounted Quick-Connect Terminal Blocks

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Terminal Blocks. Enclosure-Mounted Quick-Connect Terminal Blocks.
    Instead of fussing with screws, use a screwdriver to lift and release the clamp onto your wire. The spring clamps flatten your wire so it stays put when when vibrated or pulled.
    These terminal blocks come mounted in an enclosure that you can pop directly onto walls or equipment. They also reduce hassle because you can wire your circuits before installing the enclosure. Enclosures protect the terminal blocks from water, oil, and corrosion. Knockouts make it easy to run wire in and out of the enclosure.
    Polycarbonate—Tough yet lightweight, these enclosures shield terminal blocks from incidental knocks on busy worksites.

    Space-Saving Circuit Board Terminal Blocks

    Streamline wiring on small or crowded circuit boards. These terminal blocks connect the same number of circuits as larger blocks in about half the space. Pins on the bottom are spaced to match the layout of circuit boards. Solder them onto your board for a secure hold.
    The screw-clamp terminals flatten your wire so it stays put when vibrated or pulled. For an even stronger and more conductive connection, crimp a terminal or wire ferrule onto the end of the wire.

    Mount these terminal blocks in a panel cutout to connect components on opposite sides. The screw-clamp terminals flatten your wire so it stays put when vibrated or pulled. For an even stronger and more conductive connection, crimp a terminal or wire ferrule onto the end of the wire.
