Description
Overview:
The Blue 3.5mm (4BA Narrow) Fork Terminal is an insulated electrical termination used to connect a crimped cable to a screw or stud for a reliable, serviceable joint. The conductive barrel and fork are typically tin-plated copper for low resistance and corrosion resistance, with a blue PVC sleeve for insulation and strain relief. Sized with a 3.5mm fork opening, it suits 4BA narrow studs and tight terminal spaces often found on compact plant, garden machinery, generators, control panels and small engine looms. Supplied as a pack of 100 for workshop stock and field repairs, these terminals are easy to install with a standard ratchet crimp tool. The blue colour follows common crimp coding, typically matching 1.5-2.5mm2 conductors, aiding quick cable selection during maintenance. MPN: 205 118.
Key Features:
- 3.5mm fork opening sized for 4BA narrow studs to fit compact terminal strips and devices
- Tin-plated copper barrel and fork for dependable conductivity and corrosion protection
- Blue PVC/vinyl insulation for strain relief and reduced risk of shorts against nearby metalwork
- Colour code typically denotes 1.5-2.5mm2 cables for straightforward cable-to-terminal pairing
- Crimp-on design compatible with common ratchet crimpers for consistent results
- Fork profile allows placement without fully removing the screw, helping speed up service tasks
- Supplied in a 100-piece pack suitable for trade vans and workshop spares
- Flared entry assists cable insertion for secure, repeatable crimps
- Durable construction for vibration-resistant connections in machinery and vehicles
- Manufacturer Part Number: 205 118
Typical Applications:
Used for wiring terminations on terminal blocks, switches, relays and solenoids in plant, garden machinery, generators, pumps, compressors and control panels. Helpful for repairs and modifications to harnesses where a stud or screw terminal is used. Suitable for low-voltage circuits in equipment bays, junction boxes and small engine electrical systems where quick, secure service access is required.
Also known as:
Sometimes referred to as a spade connector, spade terminal, Y terminal, fork crimp, insulated fork lug, crimp fork, Y-spade or forked cable shoe. These names describe the same style of insulated crimp terminal with an open slot that fits under a screw head or around a small stud for a secure mechanical and electrical connection.
