Why Choose the Partex BFS43 Blue Flanged Spade Terminal?
The Partex BFS43 is a professional blue insulated flanged spade terminal designed for secure electrical conductor termination in industrial control panels, machinery wiring and electrical equipment. Featuring an M4 fork connection, this crimp terminal provides a practical method of connecting electrical conductors to compatible screw and stud terminals.
The BFS43 features a flanged fork design that helps retain the terminal beneath a suitably matched screw head or washer. Unlike closed-ring terminals, fork terminals can be fitted or removed without completely extracting the fastening screw, making them convenient for electrical installation, inspection and maintenance.
Supplied in a pack of 100 blue insulated terminals, the Partex BFS43 is suitable for electricians, panel builders, maintenance engineers and OEM manufacturers who require consistent, professional electrical connections for repetitive wiring tasks.

Secure Flanged Fork Connections for Electrical Installations
The Partex BFS43 combines the convenience of an open-ended spade terminal with a flanged fork profile. The M4 connection allows the terminal to be positioned beneath a compatible fastening screw, supporting efficient installation and maintenance of electrical conductors in control equipment and terminal assemblies.
For dependable performance, the terminal should be installed using a suitable crimping tool and correctly sized conductor. The M4 fastener must be tightened according to the terminal equipment manufacturer's requirements. Conductor cross-section, current rating, voltage rating and environmental suitability should be verified against the applicable Partex specifications before installation.
