Ideal Industries 84-9401 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the IDEAL 84-9401 flag disconnect crimp onto?
The IDEAL 84-9401 female flag disconnect is sized for 16-14 AWG stranded or solid wire. If you are terminating 22-18 AWG or 12-10 AWG conductors, you need a different barrel size, since crimping outside the rated range is the usual cause of pull-out failures.
2) Is the IDEAL 84-9401 disconnect insulated?
No. The 84-9401 is a non-insulated terminal, so the crimped barrel is exposed brass. If the connection sits in a crowded junction box or anywhere it could contact an adjacent terminal or chassis, you will want to sleeve it with heat shrink or choose an insulated flag disconnect instead.
3) Why use a flag disconnect instead of a straight quick-disconnect terminal?
A flag disconnect puts the tab opening at a right angle to the wire, so the conductor runs parallel to the terminal face rather than straight into it. That is what you reach for in a shallow enclosure, behind a switch or thermostat, or anywhere a straight disconnect would force a tight bend in the lead. Function is the same push-on connection, just reoriented.
4) How many 84-9401 disconnects come in a box?
The 84-9401 ships as a box of 500 pieces, which is a bulk pack aimed at panel builders and MRO stockrooms rather than a single repair. Ordering is by the box, so plan a job's terminal count accordingly.
5) Does the 84-9401 need a special crimper, or will any crimp tool work?
It is a butted seam, non-insulated barrel, so it wants a non-insulated terminal crimp die, not the color-coded insulated nest on a combination tool. The butted seam is built to resist splitting under full crimp pressure, and the shouldered barrel lets you seat the terminal in the die at the right depth quickly.
6) Will the 84-9401 grip stranded wire without pulling out?
The barrel is internally serrated, which bites the strands to resist pull-out and keeps contact resistance down. The expanded insulation entry also accepts a range of insulation diameters and supports the jacket behind the crimp, so the wire is not flexing right at the barrel mouth.
7) Will the IDEAL 84-9401 hold up in a damp or outdoor control panel?
The terminal is tin-plated brass, which gives it corrosion resistance for general service. Because it is non-insulated and the barrel is exposed, direct weather exposure is not what it is built for; keep it inside an enclosure and insulate the crimp if moisture is a concern.
8) What is the exact part number to order this IDEAL flag disconnect?
Order IDEAL Industries part 84-9401. That number covers the non-insulated female flag disconnect for 16-14 AWG wire in the 500-piece box.
