Value Collection BD-18597 Butt Splice Terminal Nylon 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-18597 is a fully insulated, crimp-on butt splice terminal designed to join two wire ends in a single reliable connection. The nylon insulation sleeve provides dielectric protection and resistance to abrasion, making it suitable for use in electrical panels, control wiring, and low-voltage harness assemblies. The blue color coding indicates a standard wire gauge range consistent with blue-coded crimp terminals. Each package contains 25 terminals, providing enough quantity for multi-point wiring runs or service stock. Installation requires only a ratcheting crimp tool and wire stripper, keeping workflow straightforward for electricians and service technicians alike.

This butt splice terminal is used in residential and light commercial electrical and control wiring applications. Common install scenarios include splicing conductors inside HVAC control panels, appliance wiring harnesses, low-voltage thermostat circuits, and general electrical enclosures. The fully insulated nylon body protects the crimped joint after termination, eliminating the need for additional heat shrink or tape on qualifying connections. Sold in packs of 25, the BD-18597 suits both single-job use and bench stock replenishment for service vans.

Key Features

• Accepts two wire entries for straight inline splicing
• Sold in a 25-piece package for service stock or multi-point wiring jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use crimp terminal for inline wire splicing in residential and light commercial electrical, HVAC control, and low-voltage wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified service technician in accordance with NEC guidelines. De-energize the circuit completely before stripping conductors and inserting wires into the terminal barrel. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool sized for the terminal to ensure a full, gas-tight crimp. Do not use pliers or non-ratcheting tools as a substitute, as improper crimps can result in high-resistance joints or pull-out failures.
