Product Description 10-12AWG 1/4″ (0.250″) Male Quick Connect Terminal with Heat Shrink A common find on boats, this 1/4″ (0.250″) size male quick connect (or “disconnect”) terminal is the mating part of this female quick connect. They’re often used together in place of butt connectors since they allows wires to be connected/disconnected without any cutting. This male quick connect differs from our other 10-12 Male Quick Connect as it offers heat shrink protection for your wire. We consider heat shrink protection CRUCIAL on boats, especially in the harsh saltwater environment. In addition to protection from the elements, heat shrink also creates a more secure attachment of the wire to the quick connect terminal. The 10-12 AWG male QC also comes in handy when wiring a terminal with little/tight space. We occasionally use it with our Nav/Anc 7 terminal rocker switches, attaching it to a short (2-3 in.) 14AWG wire that’s connected to the switch terminal with a 16-14AWG Female Quick Connect. This allows us to establish a connection above the overcrowded space. Specs: Category: Quick Disconnect (also called spade) Type: Male Wire Size: 10-12 AWG Size: 0.250″ Heat Shrink Protected
