Value Collection BOW-KP26158 Butt Splice Terminal

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BOW-KP26158 is a fully insulated, heat shrink butt splice terminal designed for crimp-on wire connections. The insulation is constructed from polyolefin heat shrink material, which contracts when heated to form a secure, moisture-resistant seal around the splice. This terminal is used to join two wire ends end-to-end in a single, protected connection point. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and other trade professionals install this type of terminal when making inline wire splices that require both mechanical crimp strength and environmental protection. The pink color designation indicates a specific wire gauge range consistent with standard color-coding conventions for butt splice terminals.

This butt splice terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical and HVAC wiring applications where a durable, insulated inline connection is required. Heat shrink butt splices are commonly used in control wiring, low-voltage circuits, and field wiring repairs where exposed splices would be unacceptable. The crimp-on design eliminates the need for soldering, making installation faster and more consistent in the field.

Key Features

• Fully insulated with polyolefin heat shrink material for moisture and abrasion resistance
• Crimp-on connection type for fast, tool-based installation without soldering
• Pink color coding for easy gauge identification during installation
• RoHS compliant insulation material
• Heat shrink sleeve bonds to wire jacket when heated, sealing the splice against contaminants

Compatibility

Designed as a standard crimp-on butt splice terminal for inline wire joining applications in electrical, HVAC control, and low-voltage wiring installations.

Installation Notes

Installation requires an appropriate ratcheting or compression crimp tool rated for insulated terminals. Strip wire ends to the correct length before inserting into the terminal barrel and crimp firmly before applying heat. Use a heat gun to shrink the insulation sleeve evenly from the center outward. Always de-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage before working on any wiring connection.
