Overview

The ABB RB480 Nylon Insulated Rectangular Ring Terminal (SKU: RB480) is a high-reliability electrical termination solution designed for secure, vibration-resistant connections in industrial and commercial applications. Engineered by ABB Installation Products, this terminal features a durable nylon insulation jacket with a tin-plated copper barrel, ensuring excellent corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity. The rectangular ring design provides a stable, non-rotating connection when secured with a #8 bolt, making it ideal for high-vibration environments such as control panels, machinery, and electrical enclosures. Key specifications include a wire range compatibility of 16-14 AWG, a bolt hole size of #8, and overall dimensions of 1.359 inches in length and 0.390 inches in width. The terminal meets UL 486A/B and CSA standards for up to 600V applications, with a maximum insulation temperature rating of 221°F (105°C) per UL 94 HB flammability requirements. The internal barrel features serrations for enhanced wire grip and tensile strength, while the insulation grip sleeve provides strain relief to protect the crimp joint under mechanical stress. Compatible with industry-standard crimping tools such as the CT-100, CT-1550, CT-1551, CT-2300/ST, CT-2500/L, and UP14ZLW, the RB480 ensures consistent, repeatable terminations. The blue color coding aids in quick identification and organization within complex wiring systems. Trust ABB’s proven expertise in electrical installation products for dependable performance in mission-critical applications.
