Ideal Industries 83-9291 Butt Splice Connector 16-14 Awg 25pk

Product Description

The IDEAL INDUSTRIES 83-9291 is an expanded vinyl insulated butt splice connector designed to create secure, in-line wire terminations on copper conductors ranging from 16 to 14 AWG. The expanded vinyl insulation provides a snug, protective sleeve over the crimped barrel, helping resist moisture, abrasion, and incidental contact after installation. Electricians and low-voltage technicians reach for butt splices when extending or repairing wire runs where a direct, permanent connection is required. This package contains 25 connectors, making it suitable for service calls, panel work, or small wiring projects.

The 83-9291 is used in residential and light commercial electrical work wherever 16 AWG or 14 AWG conductors need to be joined end-to-end. Common applications include branch circuit repairs, fixture wiring, control wiring, and automotive or marine low-voltage harness work. The expanded vinyl barrel accommodates a range of insulation diameters, which simplifies working with different wire types encountered in the field.

Key Features

• Accepts 16 to 14 AWG copper conductors
• Expanded vinyl insulation for added flexibility and insulation coverage after crimping
• In-line butt splice geometry for direct end-to-end wire joining
• 25 connectors per package for multi-connection service work
• Crimp-style termination — no solder or open-flame required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement butt splice connector compatible with standard 16 AWG and 14 AWG copper wire termination applications in residential and light commercial electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified technicians following applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before making any splice. Strip conductors to the connector manufacturer's recommended strip length, insert one conductor into each end of the barrel, and apply a ratcheting or hand-crimping tool sized for the connector range. Avoid over-crimping, which can sever strands and weaken the connection.
