3M BS-31-8-W

3M has been a leading supplier of Scotchlok terminals, disconnects, connectors, and tools for electrical system assembly and maintenance for over 30 years. Their products are effective and reliable, UL Listed and CSA Certified (where applicable), and available in a wide variety of types, sizes, and materials to meet diverse application requirements, including temperature and environmental demands. Design features ensure ease of installation, such as smooth wire insertion without strand snagging or twisting, and easy insulation entry. 3M terminals incorporate multiple design features to ensure consistently effective, reliable performance and ease of installation — for example, a one-piece, burr-free construction for maximum conductivity; bright tin plating for maximum corrosion resistance; and annealing to eliminate stress points and ensure maximum installation strength.

• Reliable and effective product performance, UL and CSA certified where applicable
• Wide variety of types, sizes, and materials to meet broad application requirements, including temperature and environmental conditions
• Design features ensure easy installation of 3M products, such as easy wire insertion, no strand hang-up or twisting, and easy insulation entry
• One-piece, flash-free construction provides maximum conductivity; bright tin plating provides maximum corrosion resistance; annealing eliminates stress points and ensures maximum installation strength
• Barrel-to-pad transition design minimizes bending and flexing
• Open design allows visual inspection of wire position before and after crimping
• Multiple "V"-grooves in #26 - 4 AWG parts provide maximum wire retention force and ensure good current flow
• Molded insulation on terminals is the highest quality in the industry, rated at 221°F (105°C), using tough, durable electrical-grade material; molding ensures consistent wall thickness after crimping for maximum reliability; allows funnel-entry barrel construction for easy installation; provides crimp ridges and anti-slip ridges
• Crimp ridges designed to ensure proper tool positioning on the terminal barrel, reducing crimping errors
• Funnel-entry barrel construction enables easy wire insertion without strand hang-up, eliminating the need to twist wires
• Nylon-insulated terminals with grip feature use a brass ferrule for optimal insulation grip, strain relief, and vibration protection; recessed brass ferrule provides excellent flashover protection
