Convenient M4 Fork Connections for Industrial Electrical Wiring
Insulated spade terminals, also known as fork terminals, are commonly used to connect electrical conductors to compatible screw-type terminal points. Their open-ended construction allows the fork to be positioned around suitable fastening hardware, providing a practical alternative to closed-ring terminals in applications where this connection method is permitted.
The Partex YS43/RA features an M4 fork connection and a yellow insulated sleeve, making it suitable for electrical assemblies requiring these characteristics. The insulated sleeve provides a defined conductor entry, while the fork profile supports convenient installation at compatible screw and stud connections. Depending on the terminal design, the connection may be fitted or removed without completely withdrawing the fastening screw.
For dependable installation, the conductor cross-section must match the terminal's specified wire capacity, and crimping must be completed using an appropriate tool and die. Although yellow is commonly associated with particular insulated crimp terminal sizes, the exact conductor range for the YS43/RA should be confirmed against the applicable Partex specification rather than assumed from colour alone. The completed connection must be secured according to the receiving equipment manufacturer's instructions, including any specified tightening torque.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Partex YS43/RA used for?
The Partex YS43/RA is a yellow insulated spade or fork terminal designed for crimping onto compatible electrical conductors and connecting them to suitable M4 screw or stud terminals in electrical equipment and industrial wiring assemblies.
What screw size does the YS43/RA support?
The YS43/RA features a nominal M4 fork connection designed for compatible M4 screw and stud hardware. The receiving terminal must be suitable for the fork dimensions and connection arrangement.
What colour is the Partex YS43/RA insulation?
The YS43/RA features a yellow insulated sleeve. The exact compatible conductor cross-section should be confirmed against the manufacturer's product specification before installation.
How many Partex YS43/RA spade terminals are supplied in a pack?
Each pack contains 100 Partex YS43/RA M4 yellow insulated spade terminals, suitable for electrical installation, control panel assembly and industrial maintenance applications.
What is the difference between an M4 spade terminal and an M4 ring terminal?
An M4 spade terminal has an open-ended fork that can be positioned around compatible screw or stud hardware, while an M4 ring terminal has a closed opening that surrounds the fastening hardware. Spade terminals are useful where convenient connection and removal are required, provided the receiving equipment permits fork terminals.
