3M 7000133367 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the 3M Scotchlok MV10-14FLX locking fork terminal accept?
The MV10-14FLX is a yellow-coded terminal sized for 12 to 10 AWG stranded copper (3.31 to 5.26 mm2). The barrel inside diameter is 0.135 inch, and the insulation sleeve will accept conductor insulation up to 0.145 inch outside diameter. Smaller wire like 14 or 16 AWG will not crimp reliably in this barrel, use a blue (16-14) or red (22-18) terminal for those.
2) What size stud or screw does this Scotchlok locking fork terminal fit?
It is built for a 1/4 inch stud. The fork opening clears 0.44 inch and the locking tongue spans up to 0.48 inch wide, so the spring tongue snaps around a 1/4 inch stud and holds the terminal in place while you start the nut. Overall the terminal is 1.24 inch long by 0.43 inch wide.
3) Can I use these fork terminals on light fixtures and sign wiring, or only building wire?
Both. The rating is 600V for building wire and 1000V when used in signs, fixtures, or luminaires. The temperature range runs from -40 F to 221 F (-40 C to 105 C), which covers ballast compartments and outdoor sign enclosures.
4) Why choose a locking fork terminal instead of a plain spade or a ring terminal?
A plain spade slides off the stud the moment the nut backs off, and a ring terminal means pulling the nut and hardware all the way off to land the wire. The locking fork splits the difference: the spring-like tongue wraps the stud so the terminal stays put under a loosened nut, but you can still slide it on without removing the screw. Good for terminal strips and fixture blocks where you are working one-handed in a panel. Where vibration is severe or code calls for a captive connection, a ring terminal is still the stricter choice.
5) Is the 3M Scotchlok MV10-14FLX UL listed and RoHS compliant?
It carries UL file number E23438 and is RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant without exemption. Made in the United States. That combination is what most institutional and government procurement specs are asking for on a terminal submittal.
6) Is the barrel on this Scotchlok terminal seamless or will it split when I crimp it?
The barrel is brazed-seam electrolytic copper, not a rolled open seam, so it holds its shape under a proper crimp rather than peeling open. The vinyl sleeve is funnel-shaped at the entry to guide strands in, which cuts down on the stray-strand rejects you get feeding 10 AWG into a tight barrel.
7) Will the insulated sleeve fit over THHN insulation on 10 AWG wire?
The sleeve accepts conductor insulation up to 0.145 inch outside diameter, and the sleeve itself has a maximum outer diameter of 0.25 inch (3.7 mm metric spec). Standard 10 AWG THHN falls within that, but double-insulated or heavy-jacket cable can exceed 0.145 inch and will bottom out against the sleeve before the strands seat in the barrel.
8) How many terminals come in a case of 3M 7000133367?
500 pieces per case, packed 50 per bottle, so ten bottles to the case. The bottle packaging is handy for stocking a van or a shop bench without loose terminals spilling through a bag.
