These Ancor Heat Shrink Butt Connectors come in a pack of 500 and are specifically designed for use with 22-18 gauge wire. They utilize cross linked polyolefin tubing, significantly outperforming traditional PVC tubing in terms of durability and resistance to burning. This product is well-equipped with a variety of features that make it superior for electrical projects, especially in environments where exposure to the elements is a concern.
Some of the key features of these heat shrink butt connectors include:
- Heat activated adhesive lining that creates a barrier against salt water, oil, acids, and sunlight, ensuring a robust and impenetrable seal.
- A nylon insulator offering marine-grade protection against a number of environmental factors such as sunlight, water, oil, chemicals, as well as vibration, and potential cut-through damage.
- Recognition as UL listed and CSA recognized, affirming their compliance with industry standards and quality assurance.
- The highest shrink ratio that allows them to reduce to one-third of their original size, delivering a secure fit over electrical connections.
- Designed to shrink at 257°F/125°C, with an operational temperature range of 40°C to 110°C, making them versatile across different climates and conditions.
In addition to the above features, these connectors are engineered to offer the most effective support for wiring needs:
- Their built-in heat activated adhesive goes beyond just sealing by also providing substantial protection against vibration and strain.
- Tinned for corrosion resistance, which ensures longevity in harsh conditions.
- Constructed from pure copper for maximum current flow, enhancing electrical reliability.
- Equipped with a brazed seam that fortifies the connection for maximum strength.
- Wire range compatibility of 22-18 mm or 0.3-0.8 mm², catering to a wide array of wiring projects.
However, users should be aware that these heat shrink butt connectors contain DEHP, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information, visiting P65Warnings.ca.gov is recommended.
