Technical Specifications
The BCU5 short barrel splice is a crimp-style connector designed to create secure electrical connections between 5 AWG conductors. Its compact design makes it suitable for installations where space is limited while still providing a reliable crimped connection.
The connector is manufactured from high-conductivity seamless tubing and features a tin-plated finish to help reduce corrosion in demanding environments. A beveled barrel entry allows easier wire insertion, while built-in cable stops help ensure conductors are inserted to the correct depth before crimping.
