RS PRO Butt Splice Tube Terminals

RS PRO range of heavy duty copper butt splice crimp terminals manufactured from a pure grade copper base to BS2871 and electro-tin plated to BS1872,1984. These heavy duty copper butt splice crimp terminals are for use on multi-stranded cables and are available in a variety of sizes. The tube-shaped terminals act as a solderless cable joint allowing electrical current to flow safely from one wire to another. Professionally designed using high-quality materials, RS PRO’s range of butt splice terminals are used to repair, change or lengthen electrical circuits making them a great addition to any electrician’s tool kit.

Splice Connectors are used to make quick splices or connections with two or more pieces of wire. These splices are normally crimped or soldered so that the power conducted from the source cable to the next cable is transferred at inacceptable conductivity and pull-out resistance performance level. Crimp butt splice terminals are attached by inserting the stripped ends of two stranded wires into both ends of the terminal. A crimping tool is then used to crimp both ends to ensure a tight connection between the wires.

Note

Terminal diameter stated is the Inside diameter.

TE Connectivity PIDG Terminals

TE Connectivity PIDG Closed Barrel Butt Splice

PIDG (Pre-Insulated Diamond Grip) wire crimp splice terminals designed for uniform reliability in the most difficult circuit environments. These PIDG wire splice terminals consist of a precision-formed high conductivity copper body and barrel. The wire barrel is surrounded with both a copper and nylon colour coded sleeve. The copper sleeve surrounding the barrel provides improved wire insulation support after crimping allowing the wire to bend without fraying the insulation or breaking the conductor. The nylon sleeves are colour coded according to wire-size to assist with identification. Inside the PIDG splice terminal wire barrel are serrations which provide maximum contact and tensile strength after crimping. The construction of these PIDG terminals and the use of specialised tool dies allows for uniform insulation thickness under crimping pressure. This pressure is then transmitted evenly to the centre of the crimping area to produce a uniform and reliable crimp. Available with various wire and barrel sizes, these PIDG splice terminals offer a versatile solution to a wide range of wiring applications
