Connector BLOW 43-008# insulated fork with screw 6.5 mm for 4.3 mm cable

Insulated fork connector BLOW 43-008# with screw fastening and a 6.5 mm fork width, designed for use with cables approximately 4.3 mm in diameter. The connector combines an insulated sleeve with a metal fork terminal to provide mechanical stability and reliable electrical contact when fastening to terminal blocks, stud connections or grounding points. It is suitable for both crimp and screw terminations where insulated protection and clear polarity identification are required.

Advantages

The insulated fork design ensures safe handling and helps prevent accidental short circuits. A screw fastening feature secures the terminal to studs or screw-type terminals, reducing the risk of loosening under vibration. The 6.5 mm fork width provides compatibility with common terminal screw sizes while the insulated sleeve offers electrical isolation and strain relief. The connector is compact, simple to install and suitable for repeated maintenance operations.

Suitable for

• Automotive wiring and accessory installations
• Electrical panels and terminal blocks
• Equipment assemblies requiring screw-mounted fork terminals
• Grounding or earthing connections where insulated coverage is needed
• Repairs and maintenance of electrical harnesses

Key specifications

• Connector type: insulated fork (widel) with screw fastening
• Fork width: 6.5 mm
• Recommended cable diameter: approximately 4.3 mm
• Termination methods: crimp or screw
• Insulation: protective sleeve for electrical isolation and strain relief
• Material (terminal): metal conductive alloy suitable for electrical contact

How to use

Select a connector matching the conductor cross-section and strip the cable insulation to expose the appropriate conductor length. Insert the conductor into the connector barrel and secure it by crimping with a suitable crimping tool or by tightening the screw fastening according to the connector design. Position the fork under the terminal screw or stud and tighten the screw to the manufacturer-recommended torque to ensure a reliable electrical and mechanical connection. After installation, verify that the insulation covers exposed parts and that the connection is firm.

Usage recommendations

Use a crimping tool sized for the conductor and connector to achieve a stable mechanical joint. Avoid over-tightening the terminal screw to prevent deformation of the fork; follow the equipment or terminal block torque specifications. Choose the insulated fork connector when a screw-mounted, easily serviceable connection with partial insulation is required.
