Bullet connectors, also called bullet terminals, are electrical connectors designed to connect solid or stranded wires to make reliable and simple connections. These solderless connectors provide ease of use; simply push in and snap, and easy installation. They are called bullet connectors due to the male bullet-shaped head at the connection end.
Furthermore, these connectors feature a small inline tube with a hollow female section that creates highly secure and quality fused connections by mating with the male connection. In addition, they are available in various designs, sizes, and insulation types, making them ideal for a wide variety of applications.
How to install bullet connectors?
These highly crimped connectors are designed to provide an effortless installation. Most of these connectors are made to easily crimp onto the cable for efficient heating to crimp the insulation connectors for insulated, protected, and tight sealing connections.
What are the benefits of bullet connectors?
These connectors provide various benefits depending on the use of connectors for specific applications.
- They are highly durable
- They are cost-effective
- Easy to install
- Provide resistance against corrosion and are waterproof
- Provide solid and tight seals with maximum strength and conductivity.
What are the types of bullet connectors?
Bullet connectors come in a great range of bullet diameters, gauge sizes, terminal sizes, and insulation types. The wire size is denoted by the cross-sectional area (CSA) or American wire gauge (AWG) and colour coding. The types of insulation include insulated, un-insulated, and fully insulated. Some of the more common types include:
- Blue 1.5 mm² to 2.5 mm²
- Red 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm²
- Yellow 2.5 mm² to 6 mm²
What are the uses of bullet connectors?
These high-quality connectors are widely suited for environments where quick and repeatable connection and disconnection are required. They are ideal for applications such as:
- Automation
- Audio speaker connection
- Marine projects
- General Electric applications
- Theatre
- Industrial projects
- Recording studios.
