Ceramic twist-on wire connector for joining 18–8 AWG conductors where heat would soften or melt a plastic wire nut. Rated 600V and up to 1000°F.
Use it for: splices on heating elements, thermostats, limit switches and control wiring in ovens, furnaces, kilns, water heaters and commercial kitchen equipment, and fixture wiring near hot lamps.
Choose something else if: the wires are smaller — our 22-14GA Ceramic Twist Connector fits lighter gauges. For normal temperatures, a standard twist wire connector or WAGO® push-in connector is simpler and less expensive.
