These blue Ancor butt connectors join 16-14 gauge wire and come in a pack of 100. The sleeve is cross linked polyolefin with an adhesive lining that seals when heated. The tubing shrinks to 1/3 of its original size at 257 deg. F (125 deg. C). Its stated operating range is 40 deg. C to 110 deg. C, and the connectors are UL Listed and CSA Recognized.
Our take
The tubing shrinks to 1/3 of its original size, which pulls the adhesive lining tight around the wire. It is cross linked polyolefin, which the maker says is much stronger than PVC, a useful trait for wiring that sees vibration.
