The 6.3mm size is the common push-on blade width used on elements, thermostats, switches and many other appliance components. A high temperature terminal is the right choice anywhere the joint sits close to a heat source, as standard terminals can soften, oxidise and work loose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy burnt or loose terminals cause appliance faults\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery push-on joint in an appliance has to carry current without heating up. When a terminal loosens or oxidises, resistance at the joint rises and it starts to get hot, which in turn makes the connection worse. In ovens, cooktops, dryers and hot water units the surrounding heat speeds this up. The result is often a blackened or melted connector, a burnt smell, an element that works on and off, or a component that stops working altogether. Swapping a damaged terminal for a high temperature one, and cleaning or replacing the blade it fits onto, restores a reliable connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6.3mm female spade terminal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh temperature type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-on fit for 6.3mm blade connectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneric universal part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.3mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFemale spade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting a high temperature terminal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsolate the appliance completely before touching any wiring. Cut the damaged wire back to clean, bright copper, strip only enough insulation for the terminal barrel and crimp it firmly with a proper crimping tool. Give the wire a firm tug to check the crimp holds, then push the terminal fully onto its blade. Fixed wiring and hard-wired appliances must be handled by a licensed electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I reuse a terminal that looks discoloured?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is best not to. Discolouration shows the joint has been overheating, and the spring grip has usually weakened. Replace the terminal and check the blade it connects to for burning or pitting as well.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44547731325006,"sku":"T014-1_G","price":1.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/3489\/7998\/files\/t014-1-generic-6-3mm-female-spade-terminal-high-temperature.jpg?v=1792025783","url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/t014-1-generic-6-3mm-female-spade-terminal-high-temperature","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
