Fine-stranded 6 AWG leads on VFDs, heaters and distribution blocks fray under a clamp screw and lose strands over time. The Techspan FERN-6-12B is a non-insulated wire ferrule for 6 AWG (16 mm²) conductors with a 12 mm stem, made to the DIN 46228/1 style and sold in a pack of 250. Panel builders use them to turn a loose bundle of strands into one solid pin that clamps cleanly.
Why panel builders pick it
- Tin-plated E-copper sleeve keeps conductivity high and resists oxidation.
- 12 mm stem suits terminal blocks and breakers with deep clamping cages.
- Non-insulated body stays compact where terminals sit side by side.
- Rated 600 V maximum; RoHS compliant and made in Germany.
- Pack of 250 covers a full panel build or a season of service calls.

Pro tip from the counter
Check your crimper before you open the pack: many ratcheting ferrule tools stop at 10 AWG, and a 6 AWG ferrule forced into the largest cavity of one of those comes out under-crimped. Use a tool whose die range actually lists 16 mm², and give the finished crimp a firm pull test.
Best for: control panel builders, VFD and motor lead terminations, distribution and power terminal blocks, industrial maintenance stock
