Red piggy back blade terminals for 3mm wire. They push onto a 6.4mm tab and give you a second tab on top, so two wires share one connection. Red marks 3mm wire in our colour code, which covers light-duty circuits.
What they fit
Use them on 3mm wire for jobs such as:
- interior and dash lighting
- indicator and tail light wiring
- sensor, radio and switch leads
The 6.4mm tab size is the common spade size on automotive switches, relays, fuse holders and accessories.
How to fit them
- Crimp the new wire into the red barrel.
- Pull the existing female blade off the tab, push the piggy back on, then refit the original blade to its tab.
- Both circuits now run from one 6.4mm tab.
Use a ratchet crimping tool: it will not release until the crimp is complete, so every red 3mm join gets the same pressure. Where the join will see water, seal it with dual wall heat shrink.
