3M Performance Plus Wire Connector, O/B+JUG, 22-12 AWG, Jug of 500

Twisting force to put these on is not excessive & with their core metallurgy/strength they make an exceptionally conductive electrical connection. Could not pull connection apart with all hand taughtness do to their bond . . .yet. . .they can be unscrewed fairly easily. Very unlikely to vibrate or come apart with temperature cycles or strain with inserting outlets, switches or other devices like so many other cheaper alternatives. Don’t want to get too carried away but these are awesome with time savings & not having to redo dozens of connections with each job. THESE WILL SAVE TIME, MONEY & REPUTATION FOR YOUR WORK.

I have been using these 3m wire nuts now exclusively for several years. Because of the way they internally coil, they hold wires very securely. I have become a wire nut snob and replace all other wire nuts on sight. One very confusing thing when switching to 3M was that I did not understand the difference between the O/B+ and the T/Y+ nuts. I had to order both kinds to compare them. They are flat out identical and have the same specifications of wire sizes they work on. I have to assume there is some regulatory callout somewhere for the colors that force them to make them in both color combinations. I find myself using these small ones the most often in residential wiring as they take up very little space in electrical boxes. They are rated for up to three 12 gauge conductors.

I had bought a container of 1000 of these wire nuts years ago and have used them extensively in my job of heating and cooling repair. I love these nuts. :D They work very well with many different sizes and types of wire from stranded 10 gauge to solid 22 gauge and any mix thereof. They hold tight and grip well and the blue rubber skirt gives extra protection against shorting and electrocution. They easily screw onto various sizes of wires and come off again cleanly if needed. Made by 3M so the expected quality is there and they hold up well in all climates from 112º to -10º, from the blistering sun to the damp crawl space under an 80 year old 3 bedroom. When I started to run out a couple of months ago I went looking for more only to find that I could not buy them anywhere local. Was facing the prospect of having to use those inferior cheap plastic wire nuts that I have come to hate for their ability to rip the small wires in two under their caps and their equally frustrating ability to not screw onto the big wires no matter how hard I tried to get them to "take". Went looking online for these wire nuts and found them on Amazon. Bought two boxes hoping they were the same quality wire nuts that I had bought nearly a decade ago and waited for them to arrive. Two days later I received them and opened the box, I was elated to discover that yes, they are the same product that I have come to love and that the price was reasonable for such a fine piece of workmanship. Don't laugh, you cannot understand what its like to crawl under a house at 2 am on Christmas eve, dragging your tool bag behind you as you inch your way towards the non-functional furnace that is sitting 40 feet away from the entrance, only to discover that the crappy wire nuts you have in your tool bag will not screw onto the wires and now you have to crawl back out for more and redo it all again. Let me just say that I have probably invented a few new words as I made that trek. Long story short, these wire nuts from 3M just work. I will be buying a few more boxes.

VERY WELL MADE AND MAKE CONNECTIONS FAST , SECURE AND EASY.

These wire nuts are fantastic. What I like about them the most is they are small, first off but they fit a wide range of wire sizes unlike your typical small wire nuts that on work or small wire. The rubber shield around the bottom of the nut is a nice touch too especially when using with 12-14 AWG wires. Great product.

Always have issues with wire nuts during my home projects, these work well and are easy to use across a wide range of wire gauges.

The best !
