Ancor Heat Shrink Step-Down Multi-Wire Connectors – 24-22 AWG – 3 Pack

The Ancor Heat Shrink Step-Down Multi-Wire Connectors are designed for use with 24-22 gauge wires. These connectors can be used to transition from one gauge size to another or as a connector for multiple wires of the same gauge size. They are a reliable option for applications where corrosion is a concern, offering a sealed alternative to quick-tap or 3-way connectors.

Here are some features of these connectors:
– They have a 4:1 shrink ratio tubing, ensuring a watertight seal between wires.
– The barrel of the connector is flared and has a uniform copper wall, making it easy to perform a proper mechanical crimp.
– There is a crimp indicator on the barrel, helping with the correct placement of the installation tool.
– The heat shrink tubing is clear, allowing for accurate crimping.
– The barrel also has colored stripes, indicating which crimp die to use, regardless of the application.

It is important to note that this product contains chemicals, including di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (dehp), which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information about these chemicals, please visit P65Warnings.ca.gov.
