Ecm Industries Llc GAK-2 Aluminum Split Bolt Connector 2 Awg

Product Description

The ECM INDUSTRIES LLC GAK-2 is an aluminum split bolt connector rated for 2 AWG main conductors and designed to join electrical conductors in a secure, low-resistance mechanical connection. The split bolt design clamps conductors together under bolt tension, making it a standard solution for tap and splice connections in branch circuit and service entrance wiring. Accepted tap conductor range spans 10 AWG through 4/0 AWG, giving electricians wide flexibility for trunk and tap configurations. Licensed electricians install this type of connector in conduit bodies, junction boxes, and pull boxes on residential and commercial projects.

This connector suits applications where aluminum conductors need to be joined or tapped without soldering. Typical install scenarios include service entrance splices, feeder tap connections, and panel feed work where aluminum wiring is specified. The broad conductor acceptance range of 10 AWG to 4/0 AWG makes this unit useful across a range of feeder sizes. Sold in a package quantity of 10, it is well suited for multi-connection jobs where consistent, code-compliant splices are required throughout a conduit run or enclosure.

Installation Notes

Installation of split bolt connectors must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for conductor splicing and mechanical connections. De-energize and lock out the circuit before working on any conductors. Apply listed antioxidant compound to aluminum conductors before clamping, per standard aluminum wiring practice. Completed connections must be wrapped with listed self-fusing or rubber splicing tape and finished with vinyl tape to maintain insulation integrity.
