Butt Splice Connector · 3-Wire IDC 19-26 AWG Solid Copper Gel-Filled Red · Ideal Industries 85-925
SKU: IDEAL-85-925
3-wire insulation displacement butt splice connector for 19-26 AWG solid copper conductors. Gel-filled design helps resist moisture and corrosion in low-voltage voice and data splicing; typically used where a quick no-strip connection is preferred.
What this product is for
The Ideal Industries 85-925 is a UR-I style 3-wire insulation displacement butt splice connector for joining 19-26 AWG solid copper conductors in low-voltage communication and control wiring. The gel-filled body supports fast one-step splicing without stripping insulation first.
Use for
- Telephone and voice wiring
- Low-voltage data and signal splices
- Adding or repairing a third solid copper conductor in an existing low-voltage circuit
- Indoor work where moisture-resistant gel protection is useful
Avoid for
- 12 AWG or 14 AWG branch-circuit building wire
- Stranded conductors unless specifically approved by the manufacturer for the exact wire type
- Line-voltage power distribution splices
- Applications exceeding the connector wire range or insulation diameter limit
Best for
Electricians, telecom installers, and low-voltage contractors who need a compact 3-wire splice for solid copper conductors. This style is commonly chosen when speed, consistent IDC termination, and moisture-resistant gel sealing matter more than a traditional twist-on connection.
Installed in
Commonly installed in low-voltage communication systems, telephone terminations, security and signal wiring, and similar solid-conductor splice points inside buildings. Actual suitability depends on conductor type, enclosure, and local electrical code.
Why this product exists
This connector provides a fast alternative to stripping and manually joining small solid copper wires. The IDC contact pierces insulation during termination, helping reduce installation time and maintain conductor continuity on compatible low-voltage circuits.
Compared with similar products
Compared with a 2-wire jellybean connector, this 3-wire version allows an additional conductor for branching or repair work. Compared with standard crimp butt splices, it is intended for small solid copper low-voltage conductors and does not require insulation stripping. As typical guidance, electricians use this style where conductor size and application match the listed IDC range; it is not a substitute for general branch-circuit splicing.
