3M Female Disconnect Blue 16-14AWG

This pack contains 25 insulated female quick-disconnect terminals from 3M. They accept 16 to 14 AWG wire and crimp securely for automotive or general electrical work. The blue nylon insulation provides full coverage and identifies the wire range at a glance. Each terminal mates with a standard 0.25 inch tab.

Tab width 0.25 inch and 16-14 AWG range

The critical specification is the 0.25 inch tab width combined with the 16 to 14 AWG wire capacity. A mismatch on either dimension will prevent a reliable connection. The barrel inside diameter is 0.08 inch and the tab thickness is 0.032 inch. Maximum voltage rating is 600 V and the operating temperature reaches 221 degrees F.

Suits installers needing 0.25 inch tabs on 16-14 AWG

These connectors suit technicians repairing automotive looms or appliance wiring where a 0.25 inch male tab is present. They are not for applications requiring a larger tab width, a different wire gauge, or a non-insulated terminal. Buyers needing ring terminals, butt splices or a different tab size should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What does the 16-14 AWG range mean when I'm crimping these onto wire?

The terminals accept stranded copper from 16 AWG up to 14 AWG; the barrel inside diameter is 0.08 in so the conductor must fit inside before crimping.

The spec lists 600 V and 0.25 in tab width — what does that limit in practice?

They are rated for circuits up to 600 V and mate only with 0.25 in wide male tabs that are 0.032 in thick; wider or thicker tabs will not engage.

How much space do I need behind the panel for the 0.87 in overall length?

Allow at least 0.87 in of clearance behind the mounting surface plus room for the crimped wire to bend without stressing the nylon insulation.
