Review on πŸ’‘ Enhance Efficiency with Parts Express Cable Pants 2 Conductor Industrial Electrical Connectors by Andy Edwards

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable product, looks great when sized correctly

I bought these 6mm cable sleevings to house some speaker wire and used them with 14/2 copper wire, cable jackets, heat shrink tubing and banana clips . In this case I used KabelDirekt 14/2 wire, but I think you'd have a pretty similar experience with other brands. The product is great but I would appreciate if there were more sizing and fit recommendations. This 6mm option was very tight on 14/2 wire - I was able to install it but it was a tremendous and frustrating hassle requiring stretching of the sheath with screwdrivers and other tools using lubes. etc. It was like someone wasted 90 minutes trying to fit into skinny jeans that really don't fit anymore. Now that it's finished I'm happy with the look and don't plan on removing anything but I think next time I'll buy the 8mm for 14/2 option - I would have put 10mm for 12/2 can, but I can't. checked it out. Overall though, this is a very cool product that looks well made and has excellent detailing on the ends of the wire. I would buy it again but next time I would go up a size.
