Diversitech DIVE-6217 Insulated Butt Connector 16-14 Awg

Product Description

The DIVERSITECH DIVE-6217 is an insulated butt connector designed for secure wire splicing in electrical and HVAC applications. Sold in a pack of 27, these crimp-style connectors accommodate 16-14 AWG wire and eliminate the need for soldering. The insulated barrel provides electrical isolation between the joined conductors, reducing the risk of shorts in both open and enclosed wiring runs. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and electrical contractors reach for these when making quick, reliable inline wire splices during system installation, repair, or extension work.

These connectors are suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where 16-14 AWG wire is standard. Common applications include control wiring in HVAC systems, low-voltage circuit splices, field repairs on damaged wire runs, and wire extensions in panel or junction box work. The crimp termination method provides a mechanically secure and electrically consistent connection without heat tools or solder.

Key Features

• Accepts 16-14 AWG wire for versatile use across common control and power circuits
• Crimp termination eliminates the need to solder, speeding up installation
• Insulated barrel reduces the risk of electrical shorts and exposed conductors
• Pack of 27 connectors supports multiple splices per job
• Compact form factor fits into confined spaces and crowded junction boxes

Compatibility

Designed as a standard crimp-style inline splice connector for use with 16-14 AWG copper wire in residential and commercial electrical and HVAC control wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or HVAC technician in accordance with NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before making any wire connections. Strip wire ends to the appropriate length, insert fully into the connector barrel, and crimp firmly using a proper ratcheting or hand crimp tool rated for insulated terminals. Do not use pliers as a substitute for a dedicated crimp tool, as an improper crimp can result in a high-resistance or mechanically weak joint.
