10 AWG Fork Terminal for #8 Stud

This 3M fork terminal accepts 10 to 12 AWG wire and fits a #8 stud. The bare copper barrel with tin finish is crimped directly onto the conductor. It is rated for 600 V and temperatures up to 347 °F. The yellow colour coding helps identify the wire size quickly.

Replaces damaged or undersized ring terminals

Use this fork terminal when an existing crimp has corroded, loosened or been cut off during maintenance. The open fork allows installation without fully removing the mounting screw, saving time on crowded terminal blocks. The brazed seam and CSA/UL listings make the upgrade worthwhile for circuits that must meet code.

Verify wire gauge and stud clearance before ordering

Confirm the conductor is 10 or 12 AWG; larger or smaller gauges will not crimp reliably. Ensure the mounting hardware is a #8 stud so the fork seats correctly. Check that the 0.25 in barrel length and 0.73 in overall length fit the available space on the terminal strip.

Questions about this item

What stud size and wire gauge does the M10-8FBX fork terminal accept?

This terminal fits a #8 stud and handles 10 AWG wire, with a minimum of 12 AWG.

How do you crimp the M10-8FBX and what step is often missed?

Strip the wire, insert it fully into the 0.25 in barrel, and crimp with a ratchet tool sized for 10 AWG; the common miss is not seating the conductor to the barrel stop.

When should the M10-8FBX be replaced in service?

Replace it if the tin-plated copper shows corrosion, the brazed seam splits, or the terminal exceeds 347 °F in operation.
