    The choice for outdoor electrical panels, HVAC systems, and anywhere you're concerned about moisture. A gel filler repels moisture to keep your wires dry and conductive.
    These connectors bite through insulation, so you save time and avoid damage from a wire stripper. For the most dependable connection, use a crimping tool to squeeze connectors onto your wire.

    Wire Splice Pliers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Inset. Wire Splice Pliers.
    Pliers for wire splices have stepped jaws and a long nose for parallel crimping. They also have a blade on the jaw for cutting wire. The jaws on these pliers easily and firmly grasp wire splices without damaging them or surrounding parts. They have plastic grips for comfort.
    Spring-Assisted Jaws—Pliers with spring-assisted jaws automatically open when you release the handles.

    Watertight Insulation-Piercing Butt Splices

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Splices, Connectors, and Taps. Watertight Insulation-Piercing Butt Splices.
    A gel filler seals out water to keep your wires completely dry and conductive. No need to strip your wire—insert insulated wires into the splice, then squeeze the button with a crimper or pliers until it clicks. The splice bites through the insulation, so you don't take extra time or risk nicks and cuts from a wire stripper. Snap splices together to create the exact setup you need.

    Watertight Reducing Insulation-Piercing Butt Splices

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Splices, Connectors, and Taps. Watertight Reducing Insulation-Piercing Butt Splices.
    Connect two components with different wire sizes, such as an air compressor and its control panel. Also known as step-down splices, these splices join a larger wire and a smaller wire end to end. The larger and smaller openings are color coded so you don't have to measure and mark them yourself. You can snap splices together to create the exact setup you need.
    A gel filler seals out water to keep your wires completely dry and conductive. No need to strip your wire—insert insulated wires into the splice, then squeeze the button with a crimper or pair of pliers until it clicks. The splice bites through the insulation, so you don't take extra time or risk nicks and cuts from a wire stripper.

    USB Adapters

    Connect mismatched USB cords and devices with these adapters. They also reduce wear on your device’s or cord’s connections by serving as a new connection point. All USB adapters are backward compatible, so they work with cords and connectors that meet the same or a lower USB standard.

    Tap/Main

    Unlike other wire taps, a gel filler repels moisture to keep your connection dry and conductive. These taps bite through insulation to draw power from an installed main wire to a new tap wire. No need to cut or strip your wire—slide in the main and tap lines, then close the tap and squeeze it with a crimper for a secure connection.
