Ancor offers a pack of 500 heat shrink butt connectors designed for 16-14 AWG wire. These connectors have a number of features that make them reliable and durable, suitable for unique applications including marine, automotive, and industrial environments.
The construction and material used in these connectors are meticulously designed to withstand challenging conditions:
- Cross-linked polyolefin tubing – This material is stronger than PVC tubing and is resistant to burning.
- Heat-activated adhesive lining – Ensures an impervious seal to salt water, oil, acids, and sunlight, thus suitable for harsh environments.
- Strain relief capabilities – Protects the integrity of the connection against external forces.
- Nylon insulator – Offers marine-grade resistance and withstands exposure to sunlight, water, oil, chemicals, and potential damage from vibration and cuts.
- UL Listed and CSA Recognized – These certifications mean the product meets industry standards for safety and reliability.
- Highest shrink ratio – Shrinks to one-third of its original size, ensuring a secure fit when heat is applied.
- Operating temperature range – From -40°C to 110°C, adaptable to extreme temperatures.
- Tinned pure copper construction – Provides corrosion resistance and allows for maximum current flow.
- Brazed seams – For enhanced strength and durability at the connection point.
The wire range compatibility ensures that these connectors fit with common wire sizes in their category, catering to a wide range of applications. Moreover, the user should be aware of the product's safety warning regarding chemical exposure, specifically to Proposition 65 listed substances such as di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP).
