Overview

The ABB BC86 Non-Insulated Heavy-Duty Ring Terminal is a precision-engineered electrical termination solution for high-current industrial, commercial, and heavy-duty applications. Manufactured by ABB Installation Products, this terminal combines electrolytic copper construction with a tin-plated finish to deliver superior electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. The #8 bolt hole accepts standard mounting hardware, while the #16-#14 AWG wire range supports heavy-duty copper conductors, making it ideal for high-current circuits in demanding environments. Key features include a ring tongue design that resists accidental disconnection under vibration, internal barrel serrations for maximum tensile strength, and a brazed seam that prevents terminal barrel splitting during crimping. The internally beveled barrel ensures quick wire insertion, reducing installation time and improving workflow efficiency. With a maximum operating temperature of 302°F (150°C), the BC86 is rated for use in industrial machinery, control panels, and power distribution systems where reliability is critical. The BC86 is supplied in a 500-pack configuration, providing a cost-effective solution for large-scale projects or high-volume installations. Its compact dimensions (0.87" length x 0.39" width) allow installation in tight spaces, while the non-insulated design enables direct contact with conductive surfaces when insulation is not required. Compatible with standard crimping tools such as the CT-100, CT-200, and UP14ZLW, this terminal ensures consistent, professional-grade results in HVAC systems, automotive wiring, renewable energy installations, and other high-current applications.
