About Bootlace Ferrules — Why Use Them

A bootlace ferrule (also called a pin ferrule or end sleeve) is crimped onto the end of a stranded conductor before insertion into a screw terminal block. Without a ferrule, the individual strands of a stranded conductor can splay, break off, or work loose from a screw terminal over time — reducing contact reliability and creating the risk of stray strands causing short circuits or poor connections. The crimped ferrule consolidates all conductor strands into a single rigid pin that inserts cleanly and securely into the terminal, and stays secure under vibration and repeated terminal cycling.

The BL100 uses halogen free, flame retardant nylon insulation — meeting the increasing requirement for halogen free materials in modern installations, particularly in enclosed spaces, transportation, and building automation applications. The insulated collar serves two purposes — it protects the conductor strands at the point of entry into the ferrule barrel, and it provides a colour-coded wire size identification that allows the ferrule size to be confirmed visually without removing the conductor from the terminal.

Brown is the standard collar colour for 10.0mm² ferrules within the DIN 46228/4 colour coding system. At 10.0mm², the BL100 is suited to heavier power wiring applications — motor terminations, main distribution boards, large switchboard feeders, and industrial power distribution terminals. A heavy duty ratchet crimping tool with a die set accommodating 10.0mm² ferrules is required for correct crimping. The BL100 conforms to DIN 46228/4 and is supplied by Pacific Components — an Australian distributor of quality electrical components.

Q: What wire size does the BL100 suit?
A: The BL100 suits 10.0mm² stranded conductors — used in heavy power wiring, motor terminations, main switchboards, and industrial power distribution.

Q: What is the pin length of the BL100?
A: The BL100 has a 12mm pin length — suited to medium and deep DIN rail screw terminal blocks used with larger cable sizes.

Q: Is the BL100 halogen free?
A: Yes — the BL100 uses halogen free, flame retardant nylon insulation. It conforms to RoHS and REACH.

Q: What tool is required to crimp the BL100?
A: A heavy duty bootlace ferrule ratchet crimping tool is required. The tool must have a die set that accommodates 10.0mm² ferrules.

Q: How many ferrules are in a pack?
A: The BL100 is sold in a pack of 100 ferrules.
