[Easy To Use] One-step installation, waterproof wire connectors filled with silicone gel, pre-twisting of wires is unnecessary; simply insert the wires and twist cap. [Specification] Max. Voltage: 600V max. building wire (1000V max. signs or luminaries) Flame retardant rating: UL 94V-0, insulation grease temperature: -40ยฐC ~ 200ยฐC. [Application] Wire type: Copper/Copper, for irrigation systems and landscape lighting applications, for connections exposed to condensation, water, vapors or dust.
They come loose at the slightest tug. The wire spring comes straight out of the cap as if they weren't connected at all. Even duct tape doesn't hold them together very well.
The absolute worst I have ever used. When disconnecting from the wires, the built in spring that grips the wires comes out of the plastic rendering them useless but needs to be cut off the wire. In 40 years I have never had such a self-destruct of wire nuts.
If you plan to bury low voltage landscape lighting wiring in soil or mulch, be careful to keep water out of any connectors. They are perfect for that. 2 or 3 wires fit easily into the connector, a simple twist makes your connection secure, and the lube inside should keep moisture out for years.
Typical grease filled wire nuts. Quite expensive, but I like to do something "once". And the landscape valve wiring is exposed to the elements! Not as strong as I would like. to the wires, otherwise I'll peel off a little at the puff,
