Scotchlok MV14-8R/LX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Scotchlok MV14-8R/LX ring terminal fit a #8 screw or stud?
Yes. The MV14-8R/LX is built for a #8 stud size, and the ring tongue has 0.33 inch clearance across the C dimension, so it drops over a #8 machine screw or terminal block stud without filing. Overall length is 0.93 inch (23.62 mm) and tongue width is 0.31 inch (7.87 mm), which matters when you are landing several terminals side by side on a crowded ground bar or panel strip.
2) What wire sizes does the blue Scotchlok ring terminal crimp onto?
16 to 14 AWG. That is the full range for this blue vinyl terminal, so 18 AWG will be loose in the barrel and 12 AWG will not enter it. The insulation sleeve accepts conductor insulation up to 0.170 inch maximum outer diameter, which is worth checking on thick-jacketed or THHN-type wire before you commit a whole reel of terminations.
3) Is this Scotchlok terminal UL Listed for commercial panel work?
It carries both UL and CSA agency approvals, under UL file E23438 and CSA file LR22190. Those are the file numbers a plan reviewer or electrical inspector will ask for on institutional and commercial jobs. The terminal is also RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant without exemption, which covers the restricted-substance line on most government and healthcare procurement forms.
4) Can I use this ring terminal on a 480V circuit or a lighting fixture?
The maximum recommended voltage rating is 600 V, so a 480V building wire circuit is within rating. For signs, fixtures and luminaires the terminal is rated to 1000V. Anything above 600V on general building wire needs a different class of termination.
5) Is the blue color on this ring terminal just cosmetic or does it mean something?
Blue is the standard color code for 16-14 AWG insulated terminals, and that is exactly the range this Scotchlok terminal covers. On a job where crews are grabbing terminals out of three bottles, the blue sleeve tells an inspector or the next electrician the gauge without a caliper. Red is the smaller 22-16 range and yellow the larger 12-10.
6) Will these vinyl insulated terminals hold up in an unheated warehouse or a rooftop unit?
Operating range is -40 to 221 degrees F (-40 to 105 degrees C), so unconditioned warehouses, attics, and rooftop equipment enclosures are inside the window. The barrel is electrolytic copper with tin plating for corrosion resistance, which is what you want in damp or coastal locations. Note the 105 C ceiling: it is not a terminal for the inside of a high-temperature oven or furnace plenum.
7) What is the difference between a ring terminal and a fork terminal for panel wiring?
A ring terminal like the MV14-8R/LX is a closed tongue, the screw has to come all the way out to remove the wire, so the connection cannot vibrate off the stud. A fork or spade is open ended and faster to service because you only back the screw off a turn. For equipment grounding, control panels, and anything subject to vibration, the closed ring is the right choice. For terminal strips you service often, a fork saves time.
8) What is the manufacturer part number and NSN for the blue 16-14 AWG #8 Scotchlok ring terminal?
Order it as MV14-8R/LX. The 3M ID is 80611464019 and it has a National Stock Number assigned for government and defense procurement. Distributors cross-referencing the Scotchlok line should note the MV prefix indicates the vinyl insulated series, the 14 the top of the 16-14 AWG gauge range, and the 8R a #8 ring tongue.
9) Can a B-Line 10250T legend plate be used in place of a Scotchlok MV14-8R/LX ring terminal?
No, those are two different kinds of parts. The Scotchlok MV14-8R/LX is a vinyl insulated ring terminal that crimps onto 16-14 AWG conductors and bolts down over a #8 stud, rated 600V. The B-Line 10250TS51 is a square 3-position legend plate in the 10250T series, a marking plate that mounts behind a pilot device on an enclosure door to label switch positions. It carries no conductor and makes no electrical connection, so it cannot terminate a wire to a stud.
10) How many Scotchlok MV14-8R/LX ring terminals come in a pack?
They ship 100 per bottle. The bottle format is the reason crews like it on a cart or in a van bin, you can pour a handful without digging through a bag. For MRO stockrooms standardizing a shelf, one bottle covers 100 terminations at 16-14 AWG on #8 studs.
11) Does the barrel on this Scotchlok terminal have a seam that can split when crimped?
The barrel is a brazed seam, not a rolled butt seam, so the joint is closed before you ever put a crimp tool on it. The sleeve is funnel designed polyvinyl chloride, which guides stranded conductor in without birdcaging the strands. Barrel wall thickness is 0.03 inch (0.76 mm).
