Twist-on wire connector with a ceramic body for 22–14 AWG wire, rated to 1000°F — for splices where plastic wire nuts would soften or melt.
Use it for: joining wires inside light-fixture housings and fixture junction boxes, and in ovens, dryers, space heaters and industrial equipment where heat exceeds the rating of standard wire connectors.
Choose something else if: you're making ordinary splices at room temperature — standard or winged twist connectors install faster and cost less. If you need an inline high-heat splice instead of a twist-on cap, see our high-temperature butt connectors.
