Gardner Bender WireGard assorted wire connectors give you a mix of color-coded sizes for copper-to-copper splicing across the most common residential wire ranges. Each color is sized for a specific wire combination, so you can grab the right connector without swapping boxes between jobs. Flame-retardant polypropylene shells with zinc-plated square-wire steel springs deliver the same UL 486C-listed performance as the single-color packs.

• Assorted mix of color-coded connector sizes for general service work
• Color-coded for quick identification by wire range
• Square-wire zinc-plated steel spring for secure, vibration-resistant connections
• Flame-retardant polypropylene shell rated to 221 deg F (105 deg C) max
• Rated 600V max in building wire, 1000V max in fixtures and signs
• Copper-to-copper connections only - NOT for aluminum conductors
• UL 486C Listed and CSA Certified
• 25 assorted connectors per bag

Tip: The assortment is sized for service technicians and contractors who hit a variety of splice sizes in one day: small fixture pigtails, mid-size branch splicing, and the occasional heavy 12 AWG connection. Color-code by the chart printed on the packaging - each connector matches a specific wire range.

Install: Strip about 5/8 inch of insulation from each conductor, hold the conductors parallel with the ends aligned, and twist the connector clockwise until tight. Pre-twisting solid copper conductors with linesman pliers before applying the connector is recommended on 12 AWG and 10 AWG splices where vibration is a concern (junction boxes near appliances, attic-mounted lights, garage-door openers). A finished splice should not pull apart under a firm tug, and no bare copper should show below the connector skirt.

Color code reference: WireGard color codes: GB-1 Gray (#22-#16), GB-2 Blue (#22-#16), GB-3 Orange (#22-#14), GB-4 Yellow (#18-#10), GB-6 Red (#18-#10). Always step up to the next size when in doubt - oversized connectors can spin loose, undersized connectors don't fully engage the spring.
