Solder seal butt connectors join two wires in one step with a hot-air heat gun. Each one has a solder ring in the middle and an adhesive sealing band at each end, inside a clear heat-shrink sleeve, so you can see the solder flow. Seven colour-coded sizes cover 0.25 to 10 mm² wire. Sold per connector from 10 pieces, with the price per connector dropping at 25, 50 and 100.

Wiring & getting started
- Isolate and slide on
Switch off the circuit and slide the connector onto one wire before joining.
- Strip and overlap
Strip only enough insulation for the bare strands to overlap fully inside the solder ring. Twist stray strands back in.
- Centre the join
Place the overlapped copper under the solder ring, with both coloured bands over clean insulation.
- Heat, then check
Heat the centre with a heat gun, turning the joint, until the solder wets the strands. Then shrink towards both ends until a little adhesive shows. Hold still until cool and give it a gentle pull.
