Projecta BT142H-N1 Negative Heavy Duty Bolt Brass Battery Terminal, Blister of 1

Quick answer

The Projecta BT142H-N1 is the Negative Heavy Duty Bolt Brass Battery Terminal, Blister of 1. One negative heavy duty bolt terminal in a blister pack, the BT142H-N1 is the one to grab when a single clamp has corroded or cracked on the negative post.

It is the heavy duty version, built for the bigger cable sizes used on 4WD, truck and dual battery work. Clean the post back to bright metal before fitting, and coat the joint once tightened.

The stud is 3/8 inch or 10 mm, so ring lugs need a matching hole. The bolt style holds ring lugs firmly with a nut, the usual choice where vibration is a concern.

Forged brass conducts well and copes with the heat and vibration of an engine bay. Check polarity before fitting: this suits the negative post only.

Measure the post and the cable before ordering; a terminal that is too big for the post will never clamp properly. If the old terminal was badly corroded, cut the cable back to clean copper before fitting the new one.
