PICABOND CONNECTOR W/blue STRIPE
PICABOND connectors provide an economical and reliable means of splicing multiconductor
telephone cable.
PICABOND connectors are manufactured from tin-plated phosphor bronze and tin-plated brass with bonded polyester insulation. Color coding of the insulation is provided to denote wire size and weather-resistant type. Any solid core wire, 28 to 19 AWG (0.32 – 0.90 mm), with pulp, paper or plastic insulation can be spliced.
Lightweight and compact, PICABOND splices reduce the space required over other splicing techniques by up to 33%. Straight, butt, tap, and bridge splices can be made with these connectors.
Advantages
- Saves time – no prestripping or cutting required can tap without service interruptions, eliminates “turndowns”
- Versatile – Color-coded to indicate size and type of wire, used for butt, straight, bridge and half-tap applications.
- Economical – Lower applied cost, minimum training required, higher application rates
