3M 7010349253 Butt Splice Terminal Vinyl Crimp-on Blue 100pk

Product Description

The 3M 7010349253 is a fully insulated vinyl butt splice terminal designed for crimp-on wire connections in electrical wiring applications. This blue-coded terminal accepts two wire entries and provides a secure, insulated splice point between conductors. At 1.08 inches overall length, it is sized for compact installations in panel wiring, fixture wiring, and general low-voltage electrical work. The vinyl insulation provides dielectric protection at the connection point. Each package contains 100 terminals. Electricians and electrical contractors install these terminals using standard ratcheting or handheld crimp tools appropriate for the wire gauge range.

These butt splice terminals are used in residential and commercial electrical wiring tasks where a reliable, insulated inline wire splice is required. Typical applications include control panel wiring, appliance repair, HVAC low-voltage wiring, automotive electrical work, and general wire harness assembly. The blue color coding is a standard indicator for a specific wire gauge range. Installation requires no soldering, making these terminals suitable for field terminations where speed and consistency are priorities.

Key Features

• Fully insulated vinyl construction provides dielectric protection at the splice point
• Crimp-on connection type eliminates the need for soldering
• Two wire entries allow direct inline conductor splicing
• Blue color coding for quick gauge identification at the workbench or in the field
• 1.08 inches overall length suits compact wiring spaces
• RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant for use in restricted-substance-sensitive applications
• Package quantity of 100 terminals supports production and service volume work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use butt splice terminal compatible with crimp tooling rated for vinyl-insulated connectors of this gauge range. Verify wire gauge range against your application before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified technicians using a ratcheting crimp tool rated for insulated vinyl terminals. De-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before making any wire terminations. Strip conductors to the recommended length to ensure full insertion before crimping. Do not use pliers or non-ratcheting tools in place of a proper crimp tool, as improper crimps can result in high-resistance connections or terminal pull-out.
