Why Choose the Partex BS37N/RA Blue Insulated Narrow Spade Terminal?
The Partex BS37N/RA is a blue insulated narrow spade terminal (fork terminal) designed for electrical conductor termination using compatible M3.5 screw connections. Its narrow fork configuration makes it particularly useful where terminal space is restricted or a standard-width spade terminal may not fit the available connection area.
Part of the Partex insulated spade terminal range, the BS37N/RA combines a practical open-fork connection with an insulated crimp termination. The fork design allows the terminal to be fitted beneath a compatible loosened screw head without completely removing the screw, helping simplify wiring installation, servicing and replacement.
Featuring an M3.5 nominal mounting size, narrow fork profile, blue insulation and a pack quantity of 100 terminals, the BS37N/RA provides a convenient connection solution for electrical contractors, control-panel builders, machinery manufacturers and industrial maintenance engineers.

Narrow Fork Terminals for Electrical Control and Automation Wiring
Spade terminals provide a convenient method of connecting electrical conductors to suitable screw terminals. Unlike closed-ring terminals, their open-fork design allows the connection to be positioned beneath a loosened screw head. This can be useful when replacing wiring or carrying out maintenance on electrical equipment designed to accept fork-type terminals.
The Partex BS37N/RA differs from a standard-width fork terminal through its narrow M3.5 connection profile. This makes it a practical option for compatible terminal arrangements where the available connection width is limited. The blue insulated sleeve surrounds the conductor entry, while the crimp termination provides a method of attaching the terminal to the selected conductor.
For reliable installation, the conductor cross-section, screw size, fork dimensions, electrical ratings and permitted terminal type must be checked before use. The connection should be crimped using a suitable tool and tightened according to the receiving equipment manufacturer's instructions. Narrow fork terminals should only be used where the terminal arrangement provides adequate retention and electrical contact.
