Overview

The Panduit P18-8FF-C Flanged Fork Terminal is a non-insulated electrical connector engineered for secure, high-reliability connections in industrial and commercial wiring systems. Designed for 22-16 AWG copper wire, this terminal features a #8 stud size for compatibility with standard mounting hardware. Its flanged fork design ensures stable contact with mating surfaces, reducing vibration-induced loosening in dynamic environments like control panels, machinery wiring, and electrical distribution systems. The terminal’s brazed seam construction protects the barrel from splitting during crimping, while internal barrel serrations guarantee consistent wire contact and maximum tensile strength. With a maximum operating temperature of 221°F (105°C) and UL/CSA ratings up to 600V per UL 486A/B, the P18-8FF-C meets rigorous industrial standards. Manufactured in the US by Panduit, a trusted name in electrical infrastructure, this terminal combines durability with ease of installation—no additional insulation required.
