Constructed from copper-plated steel with a nylon insulation material, this connector accepts wire sizes from 18 AWG to 12 AWG. It carries a voltage rating of 600 volts for standard applications and 1000 volts for fixture and sign wiring, with a temperature rating of 105 degrees C. The PT70M is sold in a standard package of 200 pieces, making it a practical stock item for panel shops, fixture installers, and sign fabricators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wire joint is suited for residential and commercial electrical wiring applications where multiple conductors must be terminated at a common point in one direction. Typical uses include fixture wiring, sign wiring, and control panel assembly. The connector accommodates a minimum wire combination of three 18 AWG conductors and a maximum combination of four 12 AWG conductors, covering a wide range of bundling scenarios encountered in day-to-day electrical work. Licensed electricians and panel technicians are the primary installers of this type of connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-insulated, one-piece construction for straightforward crimp termination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper-plated steel body with nylon insulation material for durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccepts 18 AWG to 12 AWG copper wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 600 volts general use and 1000 volts for fixture and sign applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature rated to 105 degrees C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUL and CSA approved\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged 200 pieces per unit for convenient field and shop stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style crimp connector for copper conductor applications ranging from 18 AWG to 12 AWG, suitable for fixture, sign, and general low-voltage wiring assemblies where non-insulated crimp terminations are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits completely before making or modifying terminations. Use a properly calibrated ratchet crimp tool rated for the connector series to ensure a gas-tight connection. Do not apply this connector to aluminum conductors, as it is rated for copper wire only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Size Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 AWG to 12 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Wire Combination Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: (3) 18 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Wire Combination Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: (4) 12 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 volts (general); 1000 volts (fixture, sign)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 105 degrees C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnector Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Insulated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e: One-piece, copper-plated steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulation Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApprovals\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL, CSA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard Package Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12.0 inches (length) x 5.4 inches (height) x 3.8 inches (width)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: US\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: PT70M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"THOMAS \u0026 BETTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284055621938,"sku":"PT70M","price":182.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309279618.jpg?v=1781067331","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/thomas-betts-pt70m-crimp-on-wire-joint-18-12-awg-200-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
