Description
OEX ACX3056 8.4mm ID Ring Crimp Terminal Blue Vinyl 1.5 to 2.5mm² Double Crimp M8 Stud Pack of 100
The OEX ACX3056 is an 8.4mm ID ring crimp terminal in blue vinyl, supplied in a pack of 100. Ring terminals provide a secure bolted connection to studs, posts and terminals the ring loop is placed over the fastener before tightening, creating a connection that cannot pull free. Double crimp construction provides both a cable crimp and an insulation crimp. Tin plated copper ensures reliable conductivity. Blue colour coding indicates the 1.5 to 2.5mm² cable range. The 8.4mm ID suits M8 bolts and studs, stepping up from the M6-suited ACX3055 (6.3mm ID). Covered by a one year warranty.
Product overview
The ACX3056 shares the same blue 1.5 to 2.5mm² cable range and double crimp design as the ACX3055, differing in the ring internal diameter 8.4mm to suit M8 bolts and studs versus the ACX3055's 6.3mm ID for M6. Ring terminals are the preferred choice for battery connections, chassis earth points and other permanent connections where accidental disconnection would be problematic, as the ring loop requires the fastener to be removed for disconnection.
The blue vinyl insulation follows the standard automotive terminal colour convention for the 1.5 to 2.5mm² cable range. The double crimp grips both the bare conductor and the cable insulation for a secure electrical connection with strain relief. A ratchet crimping tool designed for insulated terminals in the blue range is recommended. The pack of 100 suits trade workshops.

Frequently asked questions
What is a ring terminal used for? A ring terminal provides a secure bolted connection. The ring loop is placed over a bolt or stud before the fastener is tightened, locking the terminal in place. Unlike spade or blade terminals, ring terminals cannot accidentally pull free, making them the preferred choice for battery connections, chassis earths and other permanent connections.
What bolt size does an 8.4mm ID ring terminal suit? The 8.4mm internal diameter suits M8 bolts and studs (8mm nominal diameter). For M6 studs, the ACX3055 (6.3mm ID) is the correct choice. For other stud sizes, check the OEX terminal range for the correct ID.
What does the blue colour indicate? Blue is the standard colour code for automotive crimp terminals suited to the 1.5 to 2.5mm² cable range. Always match the terminal colour to the cable size for a correct crimp.
What is a double crimp terminal? A double crimp terminal has two crimp zones: one that grips the bare conductor for the electrical connection, and one that grips the cable insulation for strain relief, preventing the terminal from pulling off the cable under tension.
Are these terminals available in other sizes or colours? OEX produces ring terminals in a range of ID sizes and cable ranges. Check the OEX terminal range for other available options.
