- Heat shrink butt connector
These Ancor butt connectors join two wires in the 12-10 range, and the pack holds 3 of them in yellow. Each has a polyolefin sleeve with a heat-activated adhesive lining, so the joint seals as it shrinks. The sleeve shrinks at 257 deg. F (125 deg. C) down to 1/3 of its original size. The connector is tinned for corrosion resistance, and it is UL Listed and CSA Recognized.
Our take
The adhesive lining and a sleeve that shrinks to 1/3 of its size are what seal the splice against salt water. The 12-10 wire range limits it to wire of that size, so check your wire before you rely on it.
