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 BL100L is the long-pin version of the BL100 — both suit 10.0mm² conductors with the same brown collar colour code, but the BL100L provides an 18mm pin versus the 12mm pin of the BL100. The longer pin suits deeper terminal blocks, large busbar-style DIN rail terminals, and any application where extra pin insertion depth is required by the terminal manufacturer's specification. At 10.0mm², these ferrules are suited to heavier power wiring applications — motor terminations, main distribution boards, large switchboard feeders, and industrial power distribution terminals.

The BL100L uses halogen free, flame retardant nylon insulation — meeting the increasing requirement for halogen free materials in modern installations. Brown is the standard collar colour for 10.0mm² ferrules within the DIN 46228/4 colour coding system.

Q: What is the difference between BL100 and BL100L?
A: Both suit 10.0mm² conductors with a brown collar. The BL100 has a 12mm pin; the BL100L has an 18mm pin. Select based on the depth of the terminal block being used.

Q: What wire size does the BL100L suit?
A: The BL100L suits 10.0mm² stranded conductors — used in heavy power wiring, motor terminations, main switchboards, and industrial power distribution.

Q: Is the BL100L halogen free?
A: Yes — the BL100L uses halogen free, flame retardant nylon insulation. It conforms to RoHS and REACH.

Q: What tool is required to crimp the BL100L?
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 BL100L is sold in a pack of 100 ferrules.
