Male Disconnects

These Insulated Hillsdale Terminals Male Disconnect Terminals simply slide into a corresponding female disconnect terminals and can be easily disconnected when needed. They are connected to any wire of the correct gauge by slipping the exposed end of the wire into the end of the insulation, and crimping it in place so that the wire contacts the metal inside. An additional crimp can also be made to the end of the insulation creating an extra point of contact between the wire insulation and terminal insulation creating a stronger hold.

Where Do I Use Disconnects?

In more complicated electrical systems there are times when you will need to create a wire that will need to be swapped back and forth between multiple connections. This can be a hassle without the proper setup. Disconnect terminals allow you to create a permanent point of removal or addition into any application. The simple male, female connections are easy to swap in and out and add a reliable and good looking contact for your application.
