3M 7000149315 Aluminum Connector 2 Awg 35 Kv Pink

Product Description

The 3M 7000149315 is an aluminum connector rated for use up to 35 kV, designed for splicing copper or aluminum conductors at 2 AWG. Known by the manufacturer model number 20003, this connector measures 2 inches in length with an inner diameter of 0.307 inches and an outer diameter of 0.531 inches. A pink color-coded end cap aids in quick field identification during installation. The barrel includes a factory-applied contact aid that is compatible with polyethylene and EPR insulations, reducing the need for additional compound in most installations. Electricians working on medium-voltage distribution and service entrance applications rely on this type of fitting for reliable, code-compliant splices.

This connector is suited for medium-voltage electrical applications where copper or aluminum conductors at 2 AWG require a secure, insulated splice. The contact aid in the barrel makes it appropriate for use with poly and EPR-insulated cable systems common in underground residential distribution, commercial feeder runs, and utility service work. The pink end cap color coding simplifies conductor size sorting when working with multiple connector sizes on a job site.
