WHERE TO BUYThe nVent GARDNER BENDER 16-086L WingGard ULTRA Red Twist-On Wire Connectors are engineered to exceed the expectations of professional electricians. Ideal for Industrial, commercial, and residential applications, these hardworking connectors provide world-class quality and performance featuring a high-leverage, easy-on, wing-type design. Designed for efficiency, the swept wings are knurled for a sure grip and offset from the centerline to offer greater twisting leverage. This unique design provides the torque needed for secure connections while reducing the physical strain associated with repetitive installations. Inside the high-dielectric thermoplastic shell, a zinc-plated square-wire spring instantly adjusts to the shape and size of the splice, creating a reliable copper-to-copper connection that resists corrosion and provides maximum pullout strength. Safety is paramount in any electrical fastener. The WingGard ULTRA Red Wire Connector features flame-retardant properties that resist heat distortion up to 105°C (221°F). The deep skirt design protects the splice by preventing the exposure of bare wire, ensuring maximum dielectric strength. Whether you are working on building wire (rated 600V max) or lighting fixtures, luminaries, and signs (rated 1000V max), these connectors deliver the durability and security your projects demand. Specifications: Brand: nVent GARDNER BENDER Part Number: 16-086L Wire Range: #22-#6 AWG Ratings: 600V (Building Wire); 1000V (Signs/Fixtures) Temperature Rating: 105°C (221°F) Quantity: 325 per Large Jar
- VERSATILE WIRE RANGE - These red wire connectors accommodate a wide range of wire combinations ranging from #22-#6 AWG, ensuring one size can do the job of multiple standard connectors for your electrical project.
- MAXIMUM TWISTING LEVERAGE - Wings are knurled for a sure grip and offset from centerline for greater twisting leverage. This ergonomic, high-leverage design provides added turning torque and reduces hand strain during multiple high-volume applications.
- RELIABLE SQUARE-WIRE SPRING - A square-wire zinc-plated spring instantly adjusts to the shape and size of the splice upon insertion. This ensures a long-lasting, corrosion-resistant connection that exceeds UL standards for wire pullout force.
- SUPERIOR SAFETY & INSULATION - The high-dielectric shell features a deep skirt design to prevent exposure of bare wire. Flame-retardant properties resist heat distortion up to 105°C (221°F) for 600V to 1000V rated use.
