Panduit Terminal Connector – 100 Pack Ring Terminal, Tin-Plated, Red
The Panduit Terminal Connector delivers dependable, high-quality electrical connections for a wide range of projects—from automotive wiring harnesses to industrial control panels. This listing features a 100-pack of ring terminals made from tin-plated copper, designed to deliver excellent conductivity while resisting corrosion in challenging environments. With red color-coding for quick identification and a secure crimp profile, these terminals help electricians and DIY enthusiasts achieve fast, reliable terminations every time.
- Premium tin-plated copper for reliability: The tin plating on high-purity copper provides superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, ensuring long service life even in exposed or humid conditions. The resulting connection stays strong under temperature variation and vibrations common in automotive and industrial settings.
- Red color coding for quick size identification: The red color cue helps you rapidly distinguish the terminal size during busy installations, reducing the chance of mismatches and orientation errors in wiring harnesses.
- Consistent Panduit quality for crimped connections: Built to deliver uniform crimp performance, these terminals form a secure mechanical and electrical bond that remains dependable through routine maintenance and vibrations.
- Bulk 100-pack for cost efficiency and ready inventory: This generous pack size ensures you have ample terminals on hand for large projects, fleet maintenance, or ongoing manufacturing needs, while optimizing procurement time and cost per unit.
- Wide application range: Ideal for automotive wiring, electrical panels, control systems, and general purpose wiring where a sturdy ring terminal is required to fasten conductors to studs or bolts.

How to install Panduit Terminal Connector
- Prepare the wire: Use a wire stripper to remove the correct length of insulation, exposing only the conductor you intend to terminate. Ensure there’s no stray strands that could cause a poor crimp.
- Inspect the conductor: Check for frays, nicks, or damaged insulation near the stripped end. If present, trim and re-strip to maintain a clean termination surface.
- Insert the wire into the terminal: The stripped conductor should insert fully into the barrel of the ring terminal with no exposed conductor beyond the crimp area.
- Choose the proper crimping tool: Use a crimping tool that matches the terminal size and type, applying even, steady pressure to form a tight, uniform crimp.
- Crimp and inspect: Perform the crimp, then gently tug on the wire to verify a secure hold. Check that the terminal barrel collapses evenly and there are no gaps or raised edges.
- Attach to the stud or bolt: Position the ring terminal over the stud or mounting hole and secure with a nut or appropriate fastener. Tighten to the recommended torque specification if available, ensuring a solid electrical and mechanical connection.
- Test the connection: Use a continuity tester or multimeter to verify a low-resistance path from the wire to the ring terminal, confirming a proper electrical termination before energizing the circuit.
Frequently asked questions
-
Q: Are these terminals insulated?
A: The terminals are tin-plated copper ring terminals with red color coding for size identification. They are not described as insulated; refer to product packaging or datasheet for insulation details if required for your application. -
Q: How many terminals come in one pack?
A: Each pack contains 100 ring terminals, providing ample supply for bulk projects and routine maintenance. -
Q: Are Panduit ring terminals suitable for automotive use?
A: Yes. Ring terminals from Panduit are commonly used in automotive electrical systems due to their reliable crimp performance and corrosion-resistant tin-plated copper construction, making them suitable for general automotive wiring tasks. -
Q: What size wire do these red ring terminals fit?
A: The red color typically indicates a specific wire gauge range according to industry color codes. Always verify the terminal size against the conductor gauge specified for your project to ensure a proper fit and secure crimp. -
Q: Can I use these in high-vibration environments?
A: The tin-plated copper construction and crimped connection are designed to maintain good electrical contact under vibration. For extreme environments, ensure proper torque on the mounting stud and use appropriate strain relief where applicable.
