3M 7000006238 Direct Bury Splice Kit 18-10 Awg 600V

Product Description

The 3M 7000006238 Direct Bury Splice Kit is a weatherproof wire splicing solution engineered for underground electrical connections rated up to 600 volts. The kit pairs a spring connector with a high-impact, UV-resistant tube that arrives prefilled with moisture-resistant grease, creating a sealed splice that resists water intrusion in direct bury installations. Compatible wire range spans 18 to 10 AWG. The assembly is UL-listed for direct bury use, making it suitable for licensed electricians and irrigation technicians working on low-voltage outdoor circuits. Sold in a box of 100 individual kits.

This splice kit is designed for outdoor and underground wiring applications where moisture sealing is critical. Common uses include irrigation control wiring on golf courses, commercial landscaping, and residential properties. It is also well suited for outdoor lighting system branch connections where conductors must be buried and protected from groundwater and soil moisture. The spring connector mechanism allows for fast, tool-free termination before the tube is sealed over the joint.

Key Features

• Rated up to 600 volts for low-voltage direct bury circuits
• Accepts 18 to 10 AWG conductors
• Prefilled moisture-resistant grease provides immediate environmental seal
• High-impact, UV-resistant tube construction withstands sunlight and soil contact
• UL-listed for direct bury applications
• Bulk pack of 100 kits per box for contractor and service use

Compatibility

Designed for direct bury splicing of 18 to 10 AWG conductors in irrigation systems, outdoor lighting, and similar low-voltage underground wiring applications rated up to 600 volts.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or qualified irrigation technicians. De-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before making any splice. Insert stripped conductors into the spring connector, then seat the connector fully into the grease-filled tube to complete the moisture seal before burial. Follow all applicable NEC requirements for underground conductor installations, including minimum burial depth for the circuit type.
