Connector insulated butt splice BLOW 3.2 mm / 26 mm blue

BLOW insulated butt splice connector 3.2 mm / 26 mm in blue is a single-piece electrical crimp connector designed to provide an insulated, reliable connection between two conductors. The connector is intended for splicing wires of compatible cross-section and insulation types; its blue insulation sleeve identifies the nominal wire range and provides mechanical protection and electrical insulation for the joint. The compact design is suitable for confined spaces and common wiring tasks in automotive, household and light industrial environments.

Advantages

The connector offers a straightforward crimp installation that creates a low-resistance electrical connection while the insulated sleeve reduces the risk of short circuits and exposure to vibration. Color coding simplifies identification of the connector size and compatible wire range. Its metal contact ensures good conductivity and the surrounding insulation provides strain relief and protection against accidental contact.

Suitable for

• Joining or repairing electrical wires in automobiles and motorcycles
• Extending household wiring for low-voltage circuits and appliances
• Light industrial or workshop electrical connections and quick repairs

Key specifications

• Connector type: insulated butt splice
• Nominal conductor size reference: 3.2 mm (insulated barrel diameter for conductor accommodation)
• Overall connector length reference: 26 mm
• Insulation color: blue (color-coded for wire size range)
• Contact material: tin-plated metal (for electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance)
• Connection method: crimp

How to use

Strip an appropriate length of insulation from both conductors to expose the bare wire, matching the exposed length to the connector barrel. Insert each conductor into opposite ends of the butt splice so that bare wires meet inside the metal contact. Use a suitable crimping tool to compress the metal barrel firmly around the conductors, ensuring a secure mechanical and electrical joint. After crimping, inspect the connection for exposed strands and verify the joint is tight; if available, test electrical continuity with a multimeter.

Usage recommendations

Use a crimping tool sized for insulated terminals to achieve a reliable connection. Select the blue BLOW 3.2 mm / 26 mm butt splice for wire gauges compatible with this color code and avoid using the connector on conductors that exceed its rated cross-section or on high-current circuits beyond its intended application. When operating in environments exposed to moisture or chemicals, consider additional protective measures such as heat-shrink tubing or sealants to enhance durability.
