The AWG value is the supplier catalogue reference, not a mathematical conversion. Select HEN16-20 from the conductor’s marked 16 mm² cross-section first, then compare a 20 mm barrel with the terminal maker’s accepted ferrule and strip-length requirements.
16 mm² bare ferrule with a 20 mm barrel
The model code is direct: 16 identifies the 16 mm² conductor size and 20 identifies the nominal barrel length in millimetres. HEN16-20 suits terminals that accept a 20 mm barrel.
Compliance and ordering
HEN16-20 is not UL Listed. The UL 486F listing covers the HE insulated single-wire series only, and the non-insulated range is outside it. HEN16-20 is supplied with CE and RoHS documentation. If the panel requires a UL Listed ferrule, specify the equivalent HE series instead.

FAQ
What does HEN16-20 mean?
HEN identifies the non-insulated ferrule series – a bare tin plated copper sleeve with no collar. The 16 size code identifies the 16 mm² conductor size and 20 denotes a 20 mm barrel.
When is a non-insulated ferrule the right choice?
Where the terminal or enclosure already provides strain relief and insulation, or where collar height would not fit. The colour coding and strain relief of an insulated ferrule are given up in exchange.
Is HEN16-20 UL Listed?
No. The supplier confirms UL 486F covers the HE insulated series only; the HEN non-insulated series is not UL Listed. It is supplied with CE and RoHS documentation.
Is HEN16-20 a bootlace ferrule?
Yes. Wire ferrule, bootlace ferrule, cable ferrule and cord end terminal are common names for this type of stranded-wire termination.
Which crimp tool covers HEN16-20?
HX-35WF covers the 16 mm² range that includes HEN16-20. Verify the finished crimp against the conductor and terminal requirements.
Is HEN16-20 sold individually?
No. The standard factory pack contains 1,000 pieces. Small evaluation quantities and commercial terms are confirmed with the quotation.
