Vgate 12-Way Battery Terminal Connectors, M8 (5/16-18) Pair — Expand One Post to 12, Fits 2/0 & 2 AWG

Vgate 12-way battery terminal connectors are compact, dual-ended battery adapters that convert M8 (5/16"-18) posts into multiple bolt-down holes and threaded studs for both lead‑acid and lithium batteries.

These paired positive and negative terminals provide a space-saving way to add multiple accessory connections to a single battery post. Engineered to accept a mix of hole-holders and threaded studs, the kit supports common wire sizes including 2/0 AWG and 2 AWG and fits a broad range of vehicle and stationary battery types. They come as a matched pair so both battery poles can be expanded while keeping a neat, secure installation.

How do these connectors expand a single battery post?

The Vgate terminals convert one M8 (5/16"-18) post into up to twelve connection points using four hole-holders and eight threaded studs. They accept bolt-down lugs and screw-on attachments for powering multiple circuits or accessories from the same battery.

• Includes two 2/0 AWG and two 2 AWG hole-holders for large and medium cables.
• Offers 4 mm, 6 mm, and 8 mm screw stud sizes for varied ring terminals.
• Accommodates both bolt-down ends and threaded stud attachments.

Which battery types and voltages are compatible?

These terminals are made to work with common lead‑acid chemistries and lithium battery packs without changing the connector. They support a wide voltage range so you can use them on everything from small 6 V systems to 48 V arrays.

• Compatible with AGM, GEL, WET, MF, CA/CA and lithium battery types.
• Suitable for 6 V, 12 V, 24 V, 36 V and 48 V battery systems.
• Pairs are identical for consistent positive and negative expansion.

Will these fit my vehicle or power application?

Vgate designed the connectors for wide vehicle and marine use where space is limited but multiple feeds are needed. Their compact footprint makes them suitable for cars, motorcycles, caravans, and larger vehicles or stationary battery banks.

• Commonly used on cars, trucks, RVs, caravans, motorcycles and houseboats.
• Also compatible with forklifts, cranes, solar power banks and other off‑grid systems.
• Compact size helps install in tight battery compartments with limited clearance.

How are they packaged and installed?

Each purchase includes a matched pair—one for the positive post and one for the negative—so both battery terminals can be expanded simultaneously. Installation requires basic hand tools to secure the original battery post and the supplied studs or bolt-down screws.

• Sold as pairs; both terminals are the same size for +/- consistency.
• Mounts to M8 / 5/16"-18 battery posts and secures with the existing nut or bolt.
• Use appropriate torque and corrosion protection for long-term reliability.

Who is this for: The Vgate 12-way terminal connectors suit vehicle owners, installers and DIYers who need clean, durable multi-feed points on a single battery post—especially where space is constrained. If you maintain or modify cars, trucks, RVs, boats, or off-grid systems and need to add multiple circuits, these compact adapters offer flexible connection choices without cutting or splicing the battery cable.
