Ancor's 8 AWG - 3/8 nylon ring terminals come in a 100-pack. These marine-grade terminals are designed for the tough marine environment, unlike automotive ones. The nylon insulators are easy to crimp and won't split. The barrels tightly grip the wire with minimal effort. Tinned copper offers low electrical resistance and high corrosion protection. Features include nylon insulation with an insulation grip, double crimp, and funnel entry, and it's UL 486C compliant. WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals like di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (dehp), known in California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Using these Ancor ring terminals is a breeze. First, make sure your wire is the right gauge (8 AWG). Strip the end of the wire and insert it into the terminal barrel. Use a proper crimping tool to create a double crimp for a secure connection. Remember, the funnel entry design makes it easier to insert the wire. As for the warning, be aware that this product contains chemicals that can be harmful, so handle it with care. To maintain these terminals, keep them dry to prevent corrosion. Since they're made for the marine environment, they're already quite resistant, but storing them in a cool, dry place when not in use will extend their lifespan. If you notice any signs of damage, like a split insulator, replace the terminal right away.
