Copper Split Bolts for #8 Wire

This pack contains four copper split bolts designed for #8 gauge electrical wire. They provide a secure mechanical connection for splicing or tapping conductors in residential and commercial wiring projects. The copper construction ensures good conductivity and corrosion resistance for long-term reliability.

Replaces worn or undersized connectors

Use these bolts when existing split bolts show signs of corrosion, overheating or mechanical damage. They are also the correct choice when upgrading from temporary twist-on connectors to a permanent, code-compliant splice that can handle the full ampacity of #8 copper conductors.

Suits electricians and DIYers making permanent

The four-pack covers a typical branch-circuit splice or a small service-tap job. Buyers who need connectors for larger gauge wire, aluminium conductors, or insulated mechanical lugs should look at other connector types.

Questions about this item

What wire gauge does the #8 split bolt accept?

The #8 designation indicates compatibility with 8 AWG copper conductors for a secure crimp connection.

How do I tighten the split bolt without damaging the threads?

Use a wrench on the bolt head and nut, tightening evenly until the split closes around the wires without over-torquing the threads.

When should I replace a copper split bolt after installation?

Replace if the bolt shows corrosion, overheating discoloration, or if the split no longer closes tightly around the conductors.
