Gardner Bender 25-089 Winggard Wire Connector 10-pack

Product Description

The GARDNER BENDER 25-089 is a large blue wing-type wire connector rated for 14 AWG to 6 AWG conductors, sold in a 10-pack. The wing-type design allows fast, tool-free terminations, while an expandable square wire spring creates a vibration-resistant connection suitable for demanding electrical environments. The thermoplastic shell is flame-retardant, nonporous, and noncorrosive, with a deep skirt that covers bare wire ends to reduce flash-over risk. Color-coded blue for quick gauge identification on the job. Temperature rated to 221 degrees F. Intended for use by licensed electricians and qualified electrical contractors.

These connectors are suited for copper-to-copper splices in residential and commercial wiring applications. The wing-type grip is useful in tight junction boxes where standard twist-on connectors are difficult to torque by hand. The 10-pack format supports multi-outlet rough-in work, panel feed taps, and fixture connections where multiple splices are required in a single service call. Compliant with Federal specification W-5-610d, UL486C listed, and CSA certified, making them appropriate for use in jurisdictions requiring listed wire connectors under NEC installation guidelines.

Key Features

• Wing-type design allows fast, tool-free installation in confined spaces
• Expandable square wire spring provides vibration-resistant grip on conductors
• Deep skirt design covers bare wire ends and reduces flash-over exposure
• Flame-retardant, nonporous, noncorrosive thermoplastic shell resists chemicals and surface cracking
• Temperature rated to 221 degrees F
• UL486C listed and CSA certified; complies with Federal specification W-5-610d

Compatibility

Rated for copper-to-copper splices in the 14 AWG to 6 AWG conductor range. Suitable as a direct replacement or standard-stock wire connector for residential and commercial electrical junction and splice applications where a UL486C listed connector is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify voltage is absent with a meter before making any connections. Strip conductors to the appropriate length per connector manufacturer guidance, insert conductors, and press wings to seat the spring. Do not use on aluminum conductors; these connectors are rated for copper-to-copper connections only.
