    Multi-Direction Crimp-On Splices

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Splices, Connectors, and Taps. Multi-Direction Crimp-On Splices, Barrel Insulated, For 4 Wires.

    Barrel Insulated

    For 4 Wires

    Combine wiring from multiple components into a single, secure circuit. These splices streamline circuits for industrial control panels, automotive electrical systems, and other complex setups. The wires come together at the center of the splice like spokes on a wheel, contacting the hub without touching each other. Attach wires with a crimping tool to avoid a damaged splice and loose connection.

    Multi-Direction Heat-Shrink Crimp-On Splices

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Splices, Connectors, and Taps. Multi-Direction Heat-Shrink Crimp-On Splices.
    A step up in grip strength and strain relief over standard multi-direction splices. After crimping your splice, apply a heat gun to shrink the plastic and grip wire securely under tension and vibration. The heat shrink also protects wire from the drips, dirt, and scuffs that lead to fraying, poor conductivity, and short circuits.
    These splices streamline wiring for industrial control panels, automotive electrical systems, and other complex setups. The wires come together at the center of the splice like spokes on a wheel, contacting the hub without touching each other.

    Tight-Hold Heat-Shrink-Insulation Terminal and Splice Kits

    Keep on hand a variety of different sized terminals and splices with the most secure, sealed connection we offer. Heat the outside and the enclosed solder melts to secure your wire. The insulation also shrinks when heated, keeping out water and contaminants.
    Ring, quick-disconnect, and spade terminals have insulation covering the barrel to prevent short circuiting with nearby wire. Butt splices have a fully insulated connection tab, so no metal is exposed when they’re mated.

    Heat-Shrink-Insulation Terminal and Splice Kits

    For use where water and contaminants are a concern, the terminals and splices in these kits have insulation that shrinks and creates a tight seal when heated. Use a crimping tool (included with some kits) to install wire.

    Insulation-Piercing Wire Taps for Snap-Plug Terminals

    Image of Product. Snap Plug. Front orientation. Wire Splices, Connectors, and Taps. Insulation-Piercing Wire Taps for Snap-Plug Terminals, Snap Plugs.

    Snap Plug

    Break and restore your tapped connection without rewiring. Instead of connecting to a bare tap line, these taps lock onto wires with snap-plug terminals on the end. First, insert your main line into the tap (no need to strip the wire first). Next, squeeze the tap with a crimper so it bites through the insulation for a secure connection. Crimp a snap plug (sold separately) onto your tap wire, then pop it in and out of the tap as often as you need.
