  • TypeAdapters
  • Gold-plated pins resist corrosion for lasting conductivity

12 Gold-Plated Banana Plugs

This pack contains twelve 4 mm open-screw banana plugs designed for speaker wire termination. Gold-plated brass pins resist corrosion while the PVC-insulated bodies prevent accidental shorting. Colour-coded red and black ends identify positive and negative connections. The connectors accept stranded wire from 12 AWG down to 20 AWG with a maximum overall diameter of 4 mm.

Spring-Clip Terminal Upgrade

The open-screw design replaces bare-wire connections on spring-clip terminals found on many amplifiers, receivers and wall plates. A simple twist of the pin clamps the conductor without soldering or crimping tools. The jump is worthwhile when you want a secure, repeatable connection that will not oxidise or work loose over time.

Home-Theatre and Stereo Builders

These plugs suit anyone wiring passive speakers to binding-post or spring-clip equipment using 12–20 AWG cable. Installers who need locking plugs for high-vibration environments or connectors rated for thicker gauge wire should look at alternatives. Buyers requiring right-angle bodies or dual-banana spacing for specific equipment will also need a different style.

Questions about this item

What speaker wire gauges fit the 4 mm open-screw banana plugs?

The plugs accept 12 AWG, 14 AWG, 16 AWG, 18 AWG and 20 AWG speaker wire up to 4 mm diameter including jacket.

How do I install the open-screw banana plugs without loosening the connection?

Strip the wire, insert it fully into the pin cavity, then tighten the 4 mm screw firmly so the gold-plated brass pin clamps the conductor securely.

When should I replace the gold-plated pins or the PVC jackets?

Replace a plug if the gold plating shows visible wear or corrosion, or if the soft PVC rubber jacket cracks and exposes the conductor.
