Closed End Connector
A closed end connector joins two or more wires side by side and caps them in a single crimp. Appliance and lighting makers, electricians and harness shops use this closed end crimp connector in junction boxes, fittings and appliance leads. Each closed end splice covers the bare ends, so no copper is left exposed. They are a common fit in fan, light and geyser wiring.

End Splice Connector for Pigtail Joints
Pigtail joints, where several wires meet and end together, are common in lights and appliances. An end splice connector does this in one crimp, faster than soldering and tidier than tape. Strip the wires to the same length, hold them parallel, insert and crimp. The closed end keeps dust off the copper inside the joint. Refer to each product page for the total wire range. A closed end connector sized for the bundle avoids loose strands at the tip, so keep two or three sizes in the kit for different wire counts.
Crimp with an electrical crimping tool, and strip leads with a wire stripper. You buy straight from the maker, with 10-day returns on every order, and lighting and appliance dealers can join our dealership programme.
