    Save time when installing lots of terminals at once or adjusting a connection. Unlike ring terminals, spade terminals don't require you to remove the screw from the terminal block or other connection point. Just loosen the screw slightly, slide the terminal under the screw head, and tighten. Since ring and hook terminals hold a bit more securely, spade terminals work best when vibration and yanked wires aren't a concern. Attach your wire with a crimping tool to avoid a damaged barrel and loose connection.
    Vinyl Plastic Insulation—Our basic insulation, vinyl prevents the wire from short circuiting and won’t break down from dirt, grime, and occasional twists and tugs.
    Noninsulated—The basic, economical option when short circuits from nearby wiring aren't a concern.

    Ring Terminals

    Noninsulated

    Secure wire to screw connections without worrying it will pop off. A go-to for terminal blocks, batteries, and circuit breaker panels, ring terminals encircle the whole screw shank, so they stay put better than spade and hook terminals when vibrated or pulled. They take a bit longer to install, however, because you have to completely remove the screw. Attach your wire with a crimping tool to avoid a damaged barrel and loose connection.

    These terminals are a breeze to install, and they hold tightly enough that mild vibration won’t pop them off the screw. To attach, just loosen the screw, hook the terminal around the screw shank, and tighten. Choose hook terminals for terminal blocks that might jostle or vibrate occasionally—you’ll spend less time on installation than ring terminals and get a more reliable connection than spade terminals.
    When attaching your wire, use a crimping tool to avoid a damaged barrel and loose connection.
    Vinyl Plastic Insulation—Our basic insulation, vinyl prevents the wire from short circuiting and won’t break down from dirt, grime, and occasional twists and tugs.
    Nylon Insulation—In addition to preventing short circuits, this wear-resistant insulation protects wire from vibration and rubbing against nearby edges.
    Noninsulated—The basic, economical option when short circuits from nearby wiring aren't a concern.
    Tin-Plated Brass Internal Sleeve—Metal internal sleeves add holding strength and strain relief to keep the wire secure when bent, pulled, or vibrated.
