16-002 Twist-on Wire Connectors, 150-pack, 22-16 Awg, 300v

Gardner Bender WireGard twist-on wire connectors are designed for general-purpose electrical applications requiring the connection of two or more copper wires. These connectors deliver quick, secure contact and reliable continuity for a wide variety of projects—from air conditioners and ceiling fans to doorbells, indoor lighting, switches, thermostats, ballasts, and both large and small appliances. Whether you're a professional electrician or a DIY enthusiast, WireGard connectors provide the dependable performance needed for safe, lasting electrical connections.

The polypropylene shell with side knurling offers an easy, comfortable grip, while the zinc-plated inner spring resists corrosion and maintains positive continuity. The tight square profile ensures quick, secure contact with wires, and the design requires fewer turns to meet required torque—exceeding UL pull-out and dielectric test requirements. The tough thermoplastic housing shields against environmental extremes and resists chemical action from hydrocarbons, diluted acids, and alkaline solutions. Flame-retardant properties protect against heat distortion up to 221 degrees Fahrenheit, and the high-dielectric shell with deep skirt design prevents exposure of bare wire.
