It helps protect exposed straight terminal connections in marine battery compartments, lockers, and other DC electrical areas where accidental contact with a live terminal can create a short-circuit risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis CableCap range is offered in small and large versions to match different cable sizes. The small version covers cable sizes 1, 2, and 4, while the large version covers 1\/0 and 2\/0 cable. Both versions are listed in black and red, making them practical for positive and negative battery terminal identification in a boat’s DC system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits battery terminals with standard automotive posts, commonly used on marine starting and house batteries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVC construction adds an insulating barrier over exposed straight terminal connections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall and large versions cover cable sizes from 4 through 2\/0, depending on the selected variant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack and red color options support clearer polarity identification at the battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlip-on form helps keep installation simple when covering straight battery terminal connections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is offered in two configurations, with the main difference being the terminal cap size and the cable sizes each version is intended to cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe material, straight terminal style, and use on standard automotive battery posts are consistent across the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4016: Type Small.

On a boat, this is useful around battery banks, engine starting batteries, and accessory power circuits where terminals may be close to tools, lockers, metal hardware, or other conductive surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore fitting the cap, confirm that the cable size and terminal style match the selected variant. The connection should be clean, properly tightened, and routed so the cap can sit fully over the exposed terminal without being forced or stretched.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eFit and system notes\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a terminal insulation part, not an electrical conductor or fuse. It does not change the rating of the battery cable, terminal, or circuit protection. It is best matched with straight battery terminal connections using standard automotive posts and used as part of a clean DC installation with proper cable routing and overcurrent protection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Sea Systems","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":52023087890613,"sku":"QBP421834-V4","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":52023087923381,"sku":"QBP421834-V2","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1333154_qbp421834.jpg?v=1780191694","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp421834","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
