                      | 16-22AWG Wire (solid 
                        or stranded) 
                         Perfect for splicing track feeders 
                          to a bus cable or any type of splice connection. Just 
                          place the two wires inside the connector and crimp closed 
                          with a pair of pliers. The double bladed metal connector 
                          cuts through the insulation and makes firm contact with 
                          the wire. For smaller wire sizes please see the UG connector 
                          below.

                      NOTE #1: 
                        Please notice that this connector has a U-shaped, 2-sided 
                        metal insert, other brands have only a single-sided insert 
                        which does not seem to grip the wire as well.  
                        NOTE #2: Our testing shows that this product will work 
                        reliably with 14AWG wire for the purposes of Model Railroad 
                        electronics. We have used the product on a local layout 
                        for connecting 22 gauge feeders to a 14 gauge bus wire 
                        without any problems. |
