Using these Ancor nylon ring terminals is easy. First, make sure your wire gauge is between 12 - 10 AWG, as this is the size these terminals are made for. Slip the wire into the barrel of the terminal. Since the barrels are designed to grip the wire with little effort, a simple crimping tool can be used to secure the wire. The double - crimp design and funnel entry make this process even easier. As for maintenance, these tinned copper terminals have good corrosion protection, but in a marine environment, it's still a good idea to periodically check for any signs of corrosion or loose connections. When handling these terminals, be aware of the warning. They can expose you to chemicals that may cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
