3M 7010349033 Wire Connector Yellow 18-12 Awg

Product Description

The 3M 7010349033 is a Highland series twist-on wire connector rated for 18 to 12 AWG solid or stranded copper conductors. The yellow color coding allows electricians to quickly identify the correct connector size for the wire gauge at hand, reducing errors during termination work. The shell is designed to withstand temperatures up to 221 degrees F (105 degrees C), making it suitable for installations in tight junction boxes and other locations where heat buildup is a concern. This connector is UL Listed and CSA Certified, meeting the requirements for general electrical wiring applications in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings.

These wire connectors are suited for use in residential wiring, commercial panel and fixture work, and light industrial installations where solid or stranded conductors in the 18 to 12 AWG range are terminated. The 600-volt rating covers the vast majority of branch circuit and low-voltage control applications. When used in sign and lighting fixture assemblies, the connectors carry a 1000-volt rating, making them appropriate for those specialized environments as well. The bin quantity of 1000 units supports high-volume service operations and electrical contractors who terminate large numbers of connections per job.

Key Features

• Yellow color coding for fast, accurate AWG size identification at 18 to 12 AWG
• Works with both solid and stranded copper conductors
• Rated 600 volts for standard wiring; 1000 volts in sign and lighting fixture applications
• Shell withstands temperatures up to 221 degrees F (105 degrees C)
• UL Listed and CSA Certified for use in the US and Canada
• Sold in a 1000-unit bin quantity for contractor and service use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style twist-on wire connector for general electrical termination work on 18 to 12 AWG solid or stranded conductors in branch circuit, control, sign, and lighting fixture applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any wire terminations. Strip conductors to the appropriate length, hold them parallel, and thread the connector clockwise until secure. Do not overtighten or use pliers, as this can damage the shell or compromise the connection.
