Copper lug terminals for 8-2 AWG stranded wire

These Thomas & Betts Blackburn terminals accept stranded copper conductors from 8 AWG up to 2 AWG. Each lug is made of copper and provides a single-hole mechanical connection. The pack contains ten pieces for multiple terminations. They suit automotive and industrial wiring tasks that require a reliable crimp or bolted joint.

Replaces worn or undersized ring terminals

Upgrade when a current lug shows corrosion, heat damage or a loose stud fit. The jump is worth it if the original terminal cannot handle the conductor size or the 1000 V rating required by the circuit. A new lug restores a solid electrical path without rewiring the whole harness.

Verify conductor size

Confirm the wire is stranded copper between 8 AWG and 2 AWG. Check that the 17/64 in stud size and 0.27 in hole diameter match the mounting hardware. Ensure the 0.75 in tongue length and 0.5 in tongue width fit the available space. The maximum operating temperature is 194 Degrees F.

Questions about this item

What stud size does the 17/64 in hole fit?

The 0.27 in hole diameter matches a 17/64 in stud, so use that bolt size for a secure mount.

How do I crimp the lug onto 2 AWG stranded copper without damaging the 0.09 in tongue?

Strip the conductor to the 0.75 in tongue length, insert fully, and crimp with a die rated for 2 AWG copper; avoid over-crimping the thin tongue.

When should I replace a lug that has seen 194 Degrees F operating temperature?

Inspect for discolouration, cracked copper or loose strands after sustained 194 Degrees F exposure; replace any lug showing those signs.
