Stop relying on messy solder joints that fail over time. This professional-grade kit features Genuine TE Connectivity open-barrel splices, designed to create high-conductivity, vibration-resistant wire junctions. These tin-plated brass splices feature internal serrations that "bite" into the wire strands, ensuring a gas-tight connection that won't pull apart or corrode.
The kit includes a high-end Knipex 97 21 215 B Crimping Tool, specifically selected for its ability to provide a consistent, even collapse on small and medium splices. Made in Germany, these pliers are durable enough to strip tough Tefzel (ETFE) wire jackets daily without losing their edge.
The Science of Splicing (CMA Guide)
To ensure a perfect connection, you must select the splice size based on the Circular Mil Area (CMA). Simply add the CMA of all wires being joined to find your target:
| Splice Size | CMA Range | Common Applications |
| X-Small | 400 – 1,500 | Fine sensor triggers, signal wires |
| Small | 1,500 – 5,000 | Multiple sensor grounds, 18ga power branches |
| Medium | 4,000 – 9,000 | Main power distribution, heavy grounds |
| Large | 7,000 – 13,000 | High-current battery/alternator junctions |
