Product details

PIDG ring terminal for #8 studs

The 53408-1 is a PIDG-series ring terminal from TE Connectivity, designed for 16-22 AWG wire and a #8 stud size. It uses a tin-lead plated copper contact with a serrated crimp barrel for secure conductor grip. The insulation is radiation-resistant polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), coloured natural with a red stripe, and accepts wire insulation diameters from 0.080" to 0.125" (2.03 mm to 3.18 mm). Overall length is 0.844" (21.44 mm); outer width is 0.312" (7.92 mm).

Wire gauge ladder across PIDG ring terminals

Within the PIDG ring terminal family, the 53408-1 (16-22 AWG) sits between the 53403-1 (24-26 AWG, #8 stud, 0.027" thickness) and the 53414-1 (14-16 AWG, #4 stud, 0.031" thickness). All three share the PVDF insulation, serrated termination, and tin-lead finish.

Frequently asked questions

What is the colour and stripe on 53408-1?

The insulation is natural with a red stripe.

Will 53408-1 fit a panel drilled for 53403-1?

Both terminals use a #8 stud size, so the mounting hole is the same. The 53408-1 has a wider outer edge (0.312" vs 0.281") and thicker material (0.031" vs 0.027"), so it may not fit tight clearance or thin-panel applications without checking the available space.
