Value Collection BD-39866 Hex Split Bolt Connector

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-39866 is a hex split bolt connector designed for joining copper conductors in electrical installations. It accommodates wire sizes from 6 AWG solid through 1/0 AWG, making it suitable for a range of branch circuit and service entrance applications. The connector body is made from copper and the pressure bar from silicon bronze, a combination that resists corrosion and maintains a reliable mechanical connection under load. Licensed electricians and apprentices working on residential and light commercial wiring will find this connector appropriate for splicing copper conductors in junction boxes, service panels, and conduit runs. Each package contains 5 connectors.

This split bolt connector is used in residential and light commercial electrical work where copper-to-copper conductor splicing is required. Typical applications include wire taps, inline splices, and feeder connections within junction boxes or pull boxes. The hex head profile allows installation and tightening with standard hex wrenches or nut drivers. It is suited for installations where a code-compliant, mechanically secure connection between same-gauge or different-gauge copper conductors is needed within the 6 AWG solid to 1/0 AWG range.

Compatibility

Designed for use with copper conductors ranging from 6 AWG solid to 1/0 AWG. Suitable as a standard split bolt connector in residential and light commercial electrical applications where copper-to-copper splicing is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit and verify the absence of voltage before making any connections. Tighten the hex bolt to achieve a firm mechanical connection without over-torquing the pressure bar. Completed connections must be insulated with listed electrical tape or a listed insulating cover appropriate for the conductor size and application.
