Sea-Dog PVC Terminal Cap, Red, 8-4 AWG, 5/16in
Sea-Dog PVC Terminal Cap, Red, 8-4 AWG, 5/16in — Product description
This Sea-Dog PVC terminal cap slips over a battery or power-cable connection to keep bare metal insulated and corrosion out. Red marks the positive side at a glance. It's sized for 8-4 AWG wire with a 5/16-inch stud, and it's ABYC and USCG certified.
A terminal cap is cheap insurance for your wiring. Slide this one over a ring terminal on a battery post, a bus bar stud, or a windlass connection, and you've covered bare metal that could otherwise short against a dropped tool or a stray wire.
The red color follows the standard positive-terminal convention, so the next person working the panel knows which post is hot before they reach in. It's molded from PVC, so it stays flexible in the cold and shrugs off the damp down in the bilge. Sized for 8-4 AWG wire with a 5/16-inch stud.
This one's ABYC and USCG certified and sold as a single cap, so order the count you need for both ends of a run. Good for anyone rigging a battery bank, an inverter, a bow thruster, or any high-current connection that deserves to be covered.
