22-18 Ga Hook Terminals #8 Stud Pack of 100 Crimp Supply UL Tin

Description

Product Overview

The 22-18 gauge hook terminals are engineered to provide a reliable, secure connection point for a wide range of wiring applications. Each terminal incorporates a #8 stud, delivering a robust mechanical interface that resists loosening under vibration and thermal cycling. Constructed from high‑quality tin‑plated copper, the terminals offer superior electrical conductivity while the tin coating protects against corrosion, ensuring long‑term performance even in harsh environments. These terminals are UL listed and CSA certified, confirming compliance with rigorous safety standards and making them suitable for use in both industrial and scientific settings. With a maximum operating temperature of 347°F (175°C), they can handle the heat generated by high‑current circuits without degradation. The pack includes 100 units, providing ample supply for large projects or for maintaining a well‑stocked inventory in a manufacturing or maintenance facility.

Usage

These hook terminals are ideal for a variety of applications where a secure, insulated connection is not required but a strong mechanical bond is essential. Common uses include connecting control panel wiring, securing grounding straps, attaching sensor leads, and linking power distribution lines in equipment racks. The non‑insulated design allows for easy insertion into terminal blocks, wire ferrules, or directly onto conductive surfaces, simplifying installation and reducing assembly time. Because the terminals are compatible with standard #8 stud hardware, they can be used with existing fasteners, reducing the need for additional tooling. Their high temperature rating makes them suitable for environments such as motor control centers, HVAC systems, and industrial automation equipment where heat buildup is a concern. Additionally, the UL and CSA certifications provide confidence for electricians and engineers who must meet regulatory requirements on projects ranging from small‑scale prototypes to large‑scale production lines.

FAQ

What wire gauge sizes are compatible with these hook terminals?

The terminals are designed for 22‑18 gauge wire, which covers a common range used in control and signal wiring. The tin‑plated copper material provides a reliable connection for wires within this gauge range, ensuring both electrical performance and mechanical stability.

Can these terminals be used in outdoor or wet environments?

While the tin‑plated finish offers good corrosion resistance, the terminals are non‑insulated and therefore not intended for direct exposure to water or moisture. For outdoor applications, it is recommended to use them within a protected enclosure or combine them with appropriate sealing methods to prevent water ingress.

Do the terminals require any special tools for installation?

No special tools are needed. The #8 stud fits standard nuts and bolts, allowing you to install the terminals using common hand tools such as wrenches or pliers. This simplicity speeds up assembly and reduces the need for additional equipment.

How does the UL/CSA certification benefit my project?

UL and CSA certifications confirm that the terminals meet rigorous safety and performance standards. This can simplify regulatory approval processes, satisfy client specifications, and provide confidence that the components will perform reliably under demanding conditions.

Is there a warranty or guarantee for these hook terminals?

Crimp Supply offers a limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects for a period of one year from the date of purchase. If you encounter any issues related to material or workmanship, our support team will work with you to resolve the problem promptly.
