3M 7100165323 Butt Splice Terminal Nylon Crimp-on Yellow 50pk

Product Description

The 3M 7100165323 is a fully insulated nylon butt splice terminal used to join two wire ends in a secure, end-to-end crimp connection. The yellow color coding identifies the wire gauge range this terminal is rated for, allowing electricians and technicians to quickly select the correct size during panel wiring, harness repair, or field splicing. The copper contact with zinc plating provides solid conductivity and corrosion resistance in typical low-voltage wiring applications. Each package contains 50 terminals. This terminal is UL Listed and suited for installation by licensed electricians or experienced technicians working on electrical panels, HVAC control wiring, and similar trade work.

Butt splice terminals like the 7100165323 are used in residential and light commercial electrical work, HVAC control circuit repairs, and automotive or equipment wiring harness service. The fully insulated nylon sleeve provides protection against incidental contact with adjacent conductors or metal enclosure surfaces after crimping. These terminals are well suited for field splicing when a clean, insulated connection is required without the bulk of a wire nut or heat-shrink process.

Key Features

• Fully insulated nylon sleeve for protection against incidental conductor contact after installation
• Crimp-on connection type for fast, reliable termination without solder
• Copper contact material with zinc plating for conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Yellow color coding for quick wire gauge identification at the job site
• UL Listed to meet standard electrical installation requirements
• Packaged in quantities of 50 per bag for efficient stocking and use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard crimp-style butt splice terminal for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial wiring applications where a fully insulated nylon terminal is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or technician following applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before stripping conductors and inserting wires into the terminal barrel. Use a properly calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for insulated terminals to achieve a gas-tight crimp. Do not use pliers or non-ratcheting tools as a substitute, as an improper crimp can result in a high-resistance connection or pull-out failure.
