Value Collection BOW-23847-S Butt Splice Terminal

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BOW-23847-S is a fully insulated, heat-shrink butt splice terminal designed for crimp-on wire connections in electrical wiring assemblies. The terminal uses a polyolefin heat-shrink sleeve that, when activated with a heat gun, contracts tightly around the wire and the crimp joint to form a moisture-resistant, insulated connection. Yellow color-coding corresponds to standard wire gauge sizing conventions used in automotive, marine, and low-voltage electrical work. This terminal is installed by electricians, marine technicians, and HVAC technicians during panel wiring, harness repair, or control circuit work.

This butt splice terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical applications where a secure, insulated inline wire splice is required. Typical use cases include HVAC control wiring repairs, equipment harness splices, and general-purpose electrical service work. The heat-shrink insulation makes it appropriate for environments where moisture exposure or vibration is a concern. The crimp-on design eliminates the need for soldering and allows for fast, repeatable terminations in the field.

Key Features

• Fully insulated with polyolefin heat-shrink sleeve for moisture-resistant protection
• Crimp-on connection type for fast, solder-free inline wire splicing
• Yellow color coding for easy gauge identification during installation
• RoHS compliant construction
• Compact form factor suitable for tight wiring spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use butt splice terminal for crimp-on inline wire connections in low-voltage electrical, HVAC control, automotive, and marine wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a ratcheting crimp tool appropriate for insulated heat-shrink terminals. After crimping, apply heat evenly with a heat gun until the sleeve fully contracts around the wire insulation on both ends. De-energize all circuits before beginning any splice work in accordance with NEC guidelines. Do not use an open flame to activate the heat-shrink sleeve, as uneven heat can damage the insulation or the crimp joint.
