Manufactured from copper with a TiN (titanium nitride) contact plating, it delivers reliable conductivity and resistance to oxidation in demanding wiring environments. The terminal measures 0.62 inches in overall length and 0.12 inches in overall diameter, making it compact for tight junction boxes and panel wiring. Rated to UL 94 V-2 flame standards and compliant with MIL-T-7928 and CSA requirements, the 2A-18 is a trusted choice for licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians working to established wiring codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis butt splice terminal is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial wiring applications where a clean, low-profile inline splice is required. Its non-insulated design is appropriate when splices will be covered by separate insulating sleeves or heat-shrink tubing, or where the installation environment calls for a bare terminal per job spec. Electricians typically use this terminal in panel wiring, control panel builds, harness assembly, and field splicing of branch circuit or low-voltage control wiring. The 2A-18 accepts two wire entries, one at each end, for a direct butt-splice configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-insulated crimp-on design for use with separate insulating sleeve or heat-shrink coverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper contact material with TiN plating for oxidation resistance and long-term conductivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile: 0.62 inches overall length, 0.12 inches overall diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo wire entries for direct inline butt-splice connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets MIL-T-7928, CSA, UL Listed (File E9809), UL 94 V-2, and RoHS compliance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 100-piece package with no minimum order restriction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style crimp terminal for use in standard inline butt-splice applications across residential, commercial, and industrial electrical wiring assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified technician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit and verify absence of voltage before making any splice connection. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for the terminal size to ensure a secure, gas-tight crimp. If the installation environment requires insulation, apply an appropriately rated heat-shrink sleeve or insulating boot over the completed splice before restoring power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Crimp-On\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulation Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Insulated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.62 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Plating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Wire Entries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: CSA Certified, MIL-T-7928, RoHS Compliant, UL 94 V-2, UL Listed File E9809\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: THOMAS BETTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2A-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"THOMAS \u0026 BETTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542507258162,"sku":"2A-18","price":95.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7e8f57d6719d657e108d8fd2d9622818.jpg?v=1785902336","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/thomas-betts-2a-18-butt-splice-terminal-crimp-on-100-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
