Whether you're looking for a simple way to connect two wires together or need to run a cable through a hole, cord end terminals are the solution. They're designed for long term use, but they're also built with field serviceability in mind.

Choosing the Right Size Cord Terminal: It's important to choose the right connector for the job at hand. You need to consider the length of the wire, as well as what gauge you're connecting it to.

Crimped Wire Ferrules: These are a necessary component of every cord end terminal. Without them, the tightening screw on your terminal block would separate your stranded wire, which can cause damage to your conductors and prevent proper continuity.

Step-Down Butt Splices: These splices are great for joining wires of different sizes and are available in a wide range of sizes to meet your needs. They're able to connect 12-gauge wires, for example, while still maintaining a good amount of current and conductivity.

Ring Terminals: These are the most common type of wire terminal and are ideal for many situations. They're a little thicker than cord end lugs, which makes them better able to handle the weight and conductivity of your wire.

Disconnect Terminals: These are another type of terminal that's designed for field serviceability. They're also a good choice for connections that need to be broken and connected again, like for maintenance or a new piece of equipment.

They're available in a variety of colors to help you find the right one for your project. They're also made from tin-plated copper which is a great way to ensure they won't suffer from corrosion.
