Projecta BT142H-P10 Positive Heavy Duty Bolt Brass Battery Terminal, Box of 10

Quick answer

The Projecta BT142H-P10 is the Positive Heavy Duty Bolt Brass Battery Terminal, Box of 10. Buying for the workshop? The BT142H-P10 puts 10 positive heavy duty bolt terminals in one box.

Buying for the workshop? The BT142H-P10 puts 10 positive heavy duty bolt terminals in one box. Heavy duty pattern, so it suits thicker starter and dual battery cable.

Forged brass conducts well and copes with the heat and vibration of an engine bay. Marked positive, it is sized for the positive post; the two are not interchangeable. Before fitting, clean any corrosion off the post so the terminal seats properly.

Lugs sit on a 3/8 inch or 10 mm stud. Lugs are held by a nut on the bolt, so tighten it with a spanner and it stays put.

Keep the positive covered so a spanner cannot bridge it to the body. Tighten firmly but do not crush the post; a lead post deforms easily. Check the terminal again after the first week, as new cable can settle under the clamp. If the old terminal was badly corroded, cut the cable back to clean copper before fitting the new one.

All 10 are positive heavy duty bolt terminals, packed in one box.

Which lug hole size suits the positive heavy duty bolt BT142H-P10?

Cut the cable back to clean, bright copper if the old end is green or black, then fit the new terminal and tighten it firmly.
