Value Collection BD-23402-4 Butt Splice Terminal 1 Awg

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-23402-4 is a non-insulated, crimp-on butt splice terminal designed for making inline wire-to-wire connections on 1 AWG conductors. Butt splices of this type join two wire ends end-to-end inside a single barrel, creating a secure mechanical and electrical connection when properly crimped. This terminal ships in a pack of 10, making it practical for jobs that require multiple splices on the same run. Electricians and wire harness technicians reach for non-insulated butt splices when a heat-shrink sleeve or separate insulating cover will be applied over the crimp, or when working in applications where the bare-metal barrel is acceptable by code and installation design.

Non-insulated crimp-on butt splice terminals at the 1 AWG gauge are commonly used in heavy-gauge wiring applications including commercial electrical panels, marine wiring, automotive and fleet electrical systems, and industrial equipment wiring. The 1 AWG wire size puts this terminal in the range of high-current circuits, such as battery cables, large motor leads, and service entrance conductors where a reliable inline splice is required. Each terminal in the 10-pack is ready for field use with a standard ratcheting crimp tool sized for the appropriate die set.

Key Features

• Crimp-on connection type — no solder required, fast field installation
• Sized for 1 AWG wire — suited for high-current conductor splicing
• Non-insulated barrel — compatible with post-crimp heat-shrink or sleeve insulation
• Pack of 10 terminals — convenient for multi-splice jobs on a single run
• Inline butt splice design — joins two wire ends end-to-end in a single barrel

Compatibility

Designed as a crimp-on butt splice terminal for use with 1 AWG wire gauge conductors in electrical, marine, automotive, and industrial wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or experienced wiring technician. Always de-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before splicing any conductor. Use a ratcheting crimp tool with the correct die size for 1 AWG terminals to achieve a full, reliable crimp — an under-crimped barrel can cause high resistance and heat buildup at the splice point. If the installation is in a wet, damp, or exposed location, apply an appropriately rated heat-shrink sleeve over the finished crimp to provide insulation and moisture protection per NEC requirements.
