Twist-On Wire Connector 6 AWG Max

This red twist-on wire connector joins copper conductors in light fixtures and house wiring. The wing style allows fast hand installation without a dedicated tool. It is rated for 600 volts and a maximum temperature of 221 degrees Fahrenheit. The UL 94 V-2 flammability rating and CSA certification confirm compliance with North American safety standards.

Suitable for residential

Electricians and DIY installers splicing up to five 12 AWG or three 16 AWG copper wires will find this connector appropriate. It is not intended for aluminium conductors or circuits exceeding 600 volts. Buyers who need connectors for larger gauge wires or higher voltage ratings should look at a different product. The steel contacts with zinc finish are designed for standard indoor environments.

Maximum wire combination 5 x 12 AWG

The connector accepts a maximum combination of five 12 AWG copper conductors and a minimum of three 16 AWG conductors. This range decides whether the part fits the specific splice you are making. The compatible installation tool is model number 5, though hand twisting is standard for this wing style. Always verify the wire count and gauge against this limit before use.
