The vinyl insulated butted seam spade terminalis used where quality insulated barrel is necessary and desirable. Butted seam part with flared rigid molded polyvinyl chloride sleeve is securely attached and funneled on this spade terminal for easy wire entry. Wire insulation positions itself against funnel portion of the vinyl sleeve, thus eliminating strand hang-up. Crimping barrel and flared portion provide excellent electrical contact plus mechanical stress relief at junction of insulation and barrel. Insulation has a non-slip ridge for ease of positioning crimping tool. Wire range is indicated by industry standard color coding. These spade terminals are rated at a continuous operating temperature range from -40ºC to 105 ºC /-40ºF to 220ºF.
