Features and Benefits
Features and Benefits |
N/A The spring inside these Wing Lock Wire Connectors is formed by a coiled square wire with angled edges. It easily expands inside the plastic shell to fit a large variety of different wire gauge combinations. When the connector is tightened by being twisted onto the wires, the edges of the spring grab the conductor, and the shape of the connector forces even pressure to be applied to the entire area of contact. The result is a secure joint with a low resistance connection that will withstand pull and vibration. |
