Value Collection BVT8 Butt Splice Terminal 8 Awg Red

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BVT8 is a fully insulated, crimp-on butt splice terminal designed for joining two 8 AWG conductors in a single inline connection. The vinyl insulation sleeve provides electrical protection and strain relief at the splice point. At 1.398 inches overall length and 0.335 inches overall diameter, this compact terminal is sized for tight wire runs in panels, junction boxes, and equipment harnesses. The copper contact material ensures reliable conductivity at the crimp joint. Electricians and service technicians install this terminal using a ratcheting or standard crimp tool matched to the 8 AWG range.

This butt splice terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work, HVAC wiring repairs, control panel builds, and field service applications where a solid inline wire splice is required. It accepts two wire entries, one at each end, making it a straightforward solution for extending or repairing 8 AWG wiring in low-voltage and line-voltage circuits. The red color coding follows standard AWG color identification conventions for quick visual confirmation during installation and inspection.

Key Features

• Fully insulated vinyl sleeve protects the splice and reduces risk of accidental contact
• Crimp-on connection type for fast, tool-based termination without soldering
• Copper contact material for low-resistance, durable conductivity at the joint
• Compatible with 8 AWG wire, also rated at 8.00 sq mm cross-section
• Red color coding for fast AWG gauge identification in the field
• UL Listed and cUL Listed; RoHS Compliant

Compatibility

Designed as a standard crimp-on butt splice for 8 AWG copper conductors used in residential and commercial electrical, HVAC control wiring, and equipment repair applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed trade professional in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before making any wire terminations. Use a crimp tool rated for the 8 AWG range to achieve a full, even crimp on the copper contact barrel. Inspect the vinyl sleeve after crimping to confirm the insulation is intact and fully covers the splice joint.
