Female Disconnectors (Nylon-Fully Insulated)
A nylon female disconnector gives full insulation in a tougher sleeve than vinyl, so it stands up better to heat and repeated handling. Appliance, heater and HVAC makers, electricians and dealers use this nylon insulated female terminal on controls, thermostats and motor tabs. Each nylon fully insulated disconnector covers the whole joint once pushed home, which is why nylon is a common pick in heating appliances and geysers.

Heat Resistant Female Terminal for Appliances
Nylon keeps its shape in warm spots near heaters and motors, where softer sleeves can soften or crack. A heat resistant female terminal also holds up better to being pulled on and off during service. Crimp evenly, since a correct crimp forms the sleeve without splitting it. Check that the sleeve fits the tab base, and see each product page for tab widths and wire ranges. It is a small upgrade that saves repeat service calls on heat-prone equipment.
Use a female disconnector crimping tool with dies made for insulated terminals, and a piggy back terminal where two wires share a tab. Stock goes out direct from Ashwin Tools with 10-day returns, and heating and appliance dealers can apply via our dealership programme.
