The UB2A Connector:
a unique time-saver for
tap splicing
The pre-crimp feature of this compact
bridging connector gives the
craftsperson a time saving edge.
By positioning the UB2A on the
conductor and pre-crimping, the
conductor is prevented from slipping
out of the connector before the crimp
is completed. A thin membrane
molded into the tap wire entry port
also assists the craftsperson by
securing the tap wire until the crimp
is completed. Like the UR2, a
factory-installed sealant insulates
against corrosion, and seals out
moisture. The UB2A-D, a dry version,
is available as well.
The UB2A permits tapping directly
onto an existing conductor without
interrupting service. In ready access
closures, the UB2A eliminates cutting
cable pairs, opening pairs, and piecing
out wires.
Fast and easy to work with, the
UB2A accepts 19-26 AWG (0.9 mm -
0.4 mm) plastic-, paper-, or pulpinsulated solid copper wire with a
maximum O.D. of .082'' (2.08 mm).
The wires joined can be of different
wire gauges.
