Non Insulated Blade
A non insulated blade terminal gives a flat, rigid tip that slides into a breaker or clamp terminal and sits flat under the screw. Panel builders, appliance makers and electricians use this blade lug where a pin would be too round or a fork too wide. Each flat blade terminal is bare metal, suited to warm areas, and can be sleeved after crimping.

Flat Blade Terminal for Breakers and Clamp Terminals
Flat clamp terminals grip a blade along its full width, which spreads the screw pressure and keeps contact even. A bare blade terminal is simple to inspect, since you can see the conductor and crimp at a glance. Bare blades also cope with higher temperatures than plastic-covered parts, which suits heaters and motor wiring. Match the blade width to the terminal slot and the barrel to the wire, and look up the product page for sizes.
Crimp each blade with a lug crimping tool, and slide a vinyl sleeve on for insulation if needed. For screw terminals that should stay in place, u type lugs are another option.
