3M MV18-10FBX Scotchlok Vinyl-Insulated Fork Terminal, 22-18 AWG

The 3M MV18-10FBX Scotchlok Vinyl-Insulated Fork Terminal is a pre-insulated fork-tongue connector engineered for fast, reliable wire terminations at screw-type terminal blocks. Built to accept 22-18 AWG wire, this connector features a vinyl-insulated barrel that protects the crimp connection while allowing quick visual identification. Supplied 100 per bottle, it is suitable for use in a terminal block application, making it a practical choice for control panels, machinery wiring, and general electrical assembly work where dependable, code-appropriate terminations are required. This vinyl-insulated fork terminal design also supports quick disconnect and reconnect without removing the screw entirely, saving time during panel assembly, maintenance, and troubleshooting.

Key Features

  • Wire Range: Accepts 22-18 AWG conductors for a secure, properly sized crimp connection.
  • Vinyl-Insulated Construction: Vinyl insulation covers the crimp barrel, protecting the termination and simplifying wire identification.
  • Fork Terminal Design: Open fork-tongue design allows the terminal to be installed or removed from a screw terminal without fully disconnecting the wire.
  • Terminal Block Compatibility: Suitable for use in a terminal block, supporting common panel and equipment wiring configurations.
  • Bulk Packaging: Supplied 100 per bottle for convenient dispensing and inventory management on the bench or in the field.
  • Scotchlok Reliability: Part of the 3M Scotchlok line of connectors used widely in industrial, commercial, and electrical contracting applications.

3M MV18-10FBX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire size does the 3M MV18-10FBX fork terminal accept?
The MV18-10FBX Scotchlok fork terminal is sized for 22-18 AWG conductors. If your control wiring is 16 AWG or larger, this is the wrong terminal in the series and you need the next wire-range size up. Crimping an oversized conductor into a 22-18 barrel, or a 22 AWG strand into a larger barrel, is where loose terminations on terminal blocks come from.
2) Why choose a fork terminal instead of a ring terminal for terminal block wiring?
A fork (spade) tongue slides in and out from the side of a screw terminal, so you can back the screw off a couple of turns and pull the wire without removing the screw and washer completely. That is the reason panel builders and maintenance techs use them on terminal blocks and device screws where troubleshooting means lifting wires repeatedly. A ring terminal is the choice when vibration or an accidental pull could walk the wire off the screw, since the ring is captive.
3) Is the 3M Scotchlok MV18-10FBX pre-insulated, or do I need to add heat shrink?
It comes pre-insulated. A vinyl sleeve covers the crimp barrel out of the bottle, so nothing extra is needed over the termination. Vinyl is the general-purpose insulation grade, which suits control panels, machinery wiring, and harness work. For high-heat locations or where you want a moisture seal at the wire entry, an adhesive-lined heat-shrink terminal is a different product.
4) Do I need a special crimper for 3M Scotchlok vinyl-insulated fork terminals?
Use an insulated-terminal crimper, the type with the color-matched or nested insulation-support nests, not the open-barrel die used for non-insulated lugs. The vinyl sleeve has to be compressed with the barrel so the insulation supports the wire instead of being cut through. The crimper is not supplied with the terminals.
5) How many terminals come in a box of 3M MV18-10FBX?
100 terminals per bottle. The bottle packaging is meant for bench and truck dispensing, which is how most panel shops and MRO cribs stock the common wire ranges. Order quantity is in bottles of 100, not individual pieces.
6) What is the exact 3M part number and country of origin for this fork terminal?
The manufacturer part number is MV18-10FBX, from the 3M Scotchlok line, and it is made in the United States. Distributors and procurement teams spec'ing a standard across a panel line should order by that MPN, since the suffix identifies both the wire range and the bottle pack.
