The S3 Copper Split Bolt Connector is a mechanical connector used to join two conductors in electrical power distribution, grounding, and bonding systems. It is manufactured from high-strength copper alloy for long-term durability and resistance to corrosion and season cracking.

This Type S split bolt connector is designed for equal run and tap conductor sizes from 6 AWG to 2 AWG. It can be used with a wide range of copper and copperweld conductors and is also approved for conductor-to-rebar grounding connections.

The true hex head design allows installation with common hand tools, including torque wrenches, sockets, box wrenches, and open-end wrenches. When tightened to the recommended torque, the connector creates high contact pressure for a reliable electrical connection. The pressure bar design helps improve conductor retention and pull-out resistance.

Key features:

  • High-strength copper alloy construction
  • Suitable for power distribution, grounding, and bonding
  • Approved for direct burial applications
  • Supports conductor-to-conductor and conductor-to-rebar connections
  • True hex head for easy installation with standard tools
  • Reusable when installed following proper practices
  • Rated for copper conductors up to 600 V and 90°C
  • CSA certified, UL listed, RoHS compliant, and RUS REA accepted

Common applications include grounding systems, electrical service installations, utility projects, bonding connections, direct burial installations, and concrete-embedded grounding systems where a dependable mechanical connection is required.
