  • ColorBlack
  • Secure, reliable pigtail connections with strong biting spring

  • One orange/blue connector replaces two traditional sizes
  • UL Listed 600 V copper, 1000 V signs and luminaries

3M Performance Plus O/B+ Wire Connectors

This jug contains 500 twist-on wire connectors with a flexible steel spring. They accept solid or stranded copper conductors from 22 to 12 AWG. The dual orange and blue colour coding lets one connector replace two traditional sizes in most pigtail applications. They are UL listed for 600 volts and CSA certified.

Before ordering check your wire gauge and voltage

Verify that the conductors you plan to join fall within the 22 to 12 AWG range stated for this connector. Ensure the circuit voltage does not exceed 600 volts on copper wire or 1000 volts in signs and lighting fixtures. Confirm that a twist-on connection method suits your installation requirements.

Replaces separate orange

Electricians who stock both orange and blue caps can consolidate to this single O/B+ jug. The flexible spring expands to cover the combined wire range, reducing the number of part numbers to manage. The jump is worthwhile when you want fewer SKUs and a connector rated up to 8 AWG maximum conductor size.
