Technical Specifications
The BBCU8 Long Barrel Copper Splice is designed to create a secure crimp connection between 8 AWG copper conductors. It is manufactured from high-conductivity seamless copper tubing and features a tin-plated finish to help resist corrosion in demanding electrical installations.
The long barrel design provides increased contact area between the conductor and connector. This helps improve mechanical strength, electrical performance, and pull-out resistance. A beveled entry allows easier wire insertion, while the built-in cable stop helps ensure proper conductor placement before crimping.
Key Features:
- Fits 8 AWG copper conductors
- Long barrel design for higher pull-out strength
- High-conductivity seamless copper construction
- Tin-plated finish for corrosion resistance
- Beveled entry for faster wire installation
- Positive cable stop for correct conductor depth
- Color-coded red barrel with die index marking
- RoHS compliant
