Gardner Bender 20-163F Bullet Connector 16-14 Awg 20 Pack

Product Description

The GARDNER BENDER 20-163F is a fully insulated female bullet connector designed for making reliable, secure splice connections in electrical wiring applications. Rated at 600 volts maximum, it accommodates 16 to 14 AWG wire and features a 0.156-inch tab for consistent mating with standard bullet terminals. The insulation provides both electrical protection and a degree of mechanical support at the termination point. Each pack contains 20 connectors, making it a practical choice for service calls and panel work where multiple terminations are needed. Licensed electricians and experienced installers working on automotive, marine, appliance, or low-voltage wiring harnesses are the primary users of this connector type.

This connector is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where insulated bullet-style terminations are required. Typical applications include control wiring, appliance connections, and automotive or marine harness repairs where a clean, insulated bullet splice is specified. The 16 to 14 AWG range covers common control circuit and branch circuit wire gauges encountered in everyday service work.

Key Features

• Fully insulated construction for electrical protection at the termination point
• Rated at 600 volts maximum for broad low-voltage and control circuit compatibility
• Temperature rating of 167 degrees F for use in warm environments including engine compartments and appliance interiors
• 0.156-inch tab for consistent fit with standard bullet terminal receptacles
• Accepts 16 to 14 AWG wire for versatile use across common wire gauges
• Sold in a 20-pack for efficient use across multiple terminations per job

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use female bullet connector for 16 to 14 AWG wiring applications requiring a fully insulated, 0.156-inch tab bullet splice.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or experienced installer in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize all circuits completely before making or breaking any termination. Use a calibrated ratcheting wire crimper sized for insulated connectors to achieve a proper mechanical and electrical crimp. Avoid using pliers or non-ratcheting tools, as improper crimping can result in high-resistance connections or pull-out failures.
