Value Collection BOW-23846-JAR Butt Splice Terminal

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BOW-23846-JAR is a fully insulated, crimp-on butt splice terminal designed to create secure, moisture-resistant wire-to-wire connections in electrical wiring applications. The terminal features a heat shrink polyolefin sleeve that, when activated, contracts tightly around the wire ends to provide both mechanical strain relief and environmental protection. Supplied in blue, this terminal is sized for the wire gauge range that the blue color code conventionally represents in standard butt splice sizing. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and other trade professionals use these terminals when making field splices on low-voltage control wiring, equipment leads, or service connections.

This butt splice terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work, HVAC control circuit repairs, panel and enclosure wiring, and general equipment service. The heat shrink insulation makes it a preferred choice in applications where the splice may be exposed to vibration, moisture, or temperature cycling. The crimp-on connection method eliminates the need for soldering, allowing fast, consistent terminations with a standard ratcheting crimp tool.

Key Features

• Fully insulated design with heat shrink polyolefin sleeve for environmental and mechanical protection
• Crimp-on connection method for fast, solder-free field terminations
• Blue color coding for quick wire gauge identification during installation
• RoHS compliant materials
• Lightweight construction at 0.01 pounds per terminal

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use butt splice terminal for standard crimp-on electrical wiring applications in residential and commercial service work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed trade professional in accordance with NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before stripping wires and inserting them into the terminal barrel. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for insulated terminals to ensure a proper crimp. After crimping, apply heat evenly to the sleeve with a heat gun until the polyolefin shrinks uniformly around the wire insulation.
