10 AWG Vinyl Butt Splice Connector

This 3M BSV10Q connector joins 10 to 12 AWG copper wires with a crimped butt splice. Yellow vinyl insulation provides 600 V rating and withstands temperatures up to 221 Degrees F. The barrel inside diameter measures 0.25 in and overall length is 1.02 in. It carries CSA and UL certifications and is RoHS compliant.

Replaces Loose Twists And Tape Joints

Use this when a permanent, insulated crimp connection is required instead of wire nuts or electrical tape. The jump is worth it for automotive, marine or industrial circuits where vibration or moisture can loosen lesser terminations. Compatible crimp tools include models TH-440, TH-450 and TR-490 for a reliable mechanical bond.

Stable Under Continuous Electrical Load

Vinyl insulation maintains dielectric strength at the full 600 V rating during sustained operation up to the 221 Degrees F limit. The butted seam barrel resists separation when conductors expand and contract with thermal cycling. Copper contact material ensures consistent conductivity without the resistance rise seen in temporary mechanical connections.
