The XL lug purchase is a separate entry in my connection-hardware kit. Naming both the barrel format and stud opening helps distinguish it from the other large ring terminals.
I bought SELTERM 4/0-XL 3/8-Inch Cable Lugs as part of my camper van equipment.

Keeping the Xl Barrel Designation Distinct
I bought several large ring-terminal formats for the electrical kit.
Their cable-barrel and stud-hole identifiers remained separate fields.
This SELTERM purchase specified four-aught XL barrels with three-eighths-inch holes.

My Takeaway from This Job
Ancor keeps a three-eighths-inch opening with a standard four-aught barrel designation. The other SELTERM pack changes to a five-sixteenths-inch opening, making barrel format and stud hole two distinct comparison points.
Keep the XL barrel designation and stud-hole size explicit.

The XL barrel identity is part of the product description, alongside the three-eighths-inch stud hole. Retain that identity when recording the cable end rather than shortening the description to a generic 4/0 lug. A useful board drawing shows the ring footprint and the direction of the cable leaving the barrel. That allows the physical assembly to be compared with neighboring connections and keeps this variant distinct from the smaller-hole lugs in the same kit.
It identifies the barrel variant; the cable size and stud-hole size alone do not preserve that distinction.

Two Alternatives to Compare
Ancor offers a standard 4/0 lug with a 3/8-inch opening, while the other SELTERM purchase uses a 5/16-inch opening; barrel format and stud hole differ across these products.
