Wire Terminals
OVERVIEW
Wire Terminals attach to the end of wires to provide safe termination of the wire at its end point. These wire terminals prevent fraying of the wire and feature quick-and-easy cable insertion. Terminals include fork, push-on, and ring varieties that act as fasteners, and ferrules are available to provide protection for stranded wire.

Which terminal for me?
Choosing your wire terminal depends largely on what you will be securing and where.
Fork Terminals
Able to be removed by simply loosening the screw so that the terminal or wire can be easily replaced.
Ring Terminals
More secure than other options due to completely encircling the screw. Requires the screw to be completely removed to replace the wire or terminal..
Push-On Quick Disconnect Terminals
Primarily used for components that may be unplugged frequently. This is especially useful if you anticipate that a component will need frequent replacement or maintenance. Push-on terminals are a fast way to make connections..
Ferrules
Protect stranded wire from fraying and corrosion and are used with terminals (such as on a relay socket)
FMX Crimping Tool
The FMX crimping tool is available in three sizes. Additionally, a storage case is available that accommodates both the tool and terminals.
