Projecta BT642-P10 Positive Bolt Brass Battery Terminal, Bag of 10

Quick answer

The Projecta BT642-P10 is the Positive Bolt Brass Battery Terminal, Bag of 10. Forged brass conducts well and copes with the heat and vibration of an engine bay.

This is the 10 piece bag of positive bolt terminals, handy for workshops restocking the drawer. Forged brass conducts well and copes with the heat and vibration of an engine bay.

Positive posts are slightly larger than negative posts, so fit this one only to the positive side. Clean the post back to bright metal before fitting, and coat the joint once tightened.

Lugs sit on a 5/16 inch or 8 mm stud. The bolt style holds ring lugs firmly with a nut, the usual choice where vibration is a concern.

Tighten firmly but do not crush the post; a lead post deforms easily. Keep the positive covered so a spanner cannot bridge it to the body. Check the terminal again after the first week, as new cable can settle under the clamp. After fitting, a thin smear of terminal grease or spray protector slows corrosion. Measure the post and the cable before ordering; a terminal that is too big for the post will never clamp properly.

FAQ

Before I order, are all 10 terminals in the BT642-P10 positive?

All 10 are positive bolt terminals, packed in one bag.

Before I order, which lug hole size suits the positive bolt BT642-P10?

The stud is 5/16 inch or 8 mm. Use lugs with a hole to match.

Why does the BT642-P10 only suit the positive post?

No. Positive posts are slightly larger than negative ones, so this positive terminal is sized for the positive post only.

Before I order, replacing a corroded clamp with the positive bolt BT642-P10: anything to watch?

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.

Before I order, how do I stop the bolt BT642-P10 going green on the post?

Once it is tight, a thin coat of terminal grease or protector spray over the joint slows corrosion.
