Butt connector for joining two 12–10 AWG stranded copper wires end to end. It is tin-plated copper with no insulation: insulate it with heat shrink after crimping, or use it inside a protected enclosure.
Use it for: splicing higher-current accessory, heater and pump feeds where you will seal the joint with heat shrink, or inside a protected enclosure.
Getting the right size: match the barrel to the wire gauge. Same non-insulated butt connector for other gauges: 22–18 AWG · 16–14 AWG · 8 AWG · 6 AWG · 4 AWG · 2 AWG · 1/0 AWG · 2/0 AWG · 3/0 AWG · 4/0 AWG. Same size, different construction: high temp (900°F), vinyl, nylon, heat shrink (waterproof).
Priced per piece — order any quantity. Seal it with adhesive-lined dual wall heat shrink. See all butt connectors.

• Control Panel & Switchgear Wiring - Splice control circuits, instrumentation wiring, and signal cables inside electrical panels where the enclosure provides protection and compact non-insulated connectors maximize space efficiency in dense terminal arrangements.
• Enclosed Equipment & Machinery Wiring - Join conductors inside motor control centers, HVAC equipment housings, and industrial machinery where protected environments allow direct metal connections and superior heat dissipation benefits control circuit reliability.
• Junction Box & Conduit Splices - Connect branch circuits and feeder wires inside junction boxes and pull boxes where code-compliant enclosures provide protection and non-insulated splices offer efficient, space-saving connections.
• Automotive & Marine Enclosed Compartments - Splice wiring inside protected battery boxes, fuse panels, and equipment housings where the enclosure prevents accidental contact and compact connectors simplify installation in tight spaces.
