CONNECTING TIPS
Quick, reliable splices are a squeeze. And a snap.
3M Scotchlok Insulation Displacement Connectors (IDCs) are easy to use and save time — to install one, just squeeze — no stripping or twisting.
Our unique “U” contact provides a dependable electrical connection.
• A “live-spring” joint is made by driving the “U” contact down into the connector.
• As the “U” contact is pressed into the connector, it grasps the conductors as it displaces the insulation.
• Contact grips the conductor and holds with a firm, resilient pressure.
