## Overview

3M Performance Plus Wire Connectors feature a uniquely flexible steel spring that securely grips a wide wire range (22-8 AWG), combining red and yellow color codes to replace multiple connectors. UL listed up to 1000 volts, these connectors ensure safe, reliable, and reusable connections with a flexible skirt to prevent copper exposure, making them a top pick for both professional electricians and savvy DIYers.

## Description

3M Performance Plus Wire Connectors are designed with a uniquely flexible spring that has generous room for expansion and a strong bite for a secure connection. Because of their increased wire range, just three Performance Plus wire connectors handle the work of eight standard connectors. And the flexible skirt helps prevent copper exposure for enhanced safety.

Review: Great for home handyman - This is my first time using these. They seem to work well. Even though they cost a little more, I like that it covers 2 different sizes of wire nuts. It takes some of the guesswork out. For the project I'm working on right now these should work everywhere a wire nut is needed (except ground. I'm using greenies for those in some tight places). It will probably take me a while to use all of them, so it may save me money in the long run vs. having to buy and keep track of 2 different sizes.
Review: Better any any connector you can buy at the big box stores - These connectors are far and beyond the best I've ever used. I'm not a professional electrician, but an avid DIY-er. I've re-wired most of my house using these, and I love 'em. I noticed that electricians seem to use these, so I gave them a try. These have a really great bite and hold on connected wire that no other product can touch. This is pretty important, as I want to know that any connection I make is going to stay, and with these there is no doubt - connections are really firmly made and it is very hard to pull off the connector once it's twisted tight. I've used all of the brands you can buy are your local big-box stores, and none come close. The flexible skirt on these is nice as well if you are working in a tight place. I'm not going to bother looking anywhere else for connectors.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Description says there are multiple sizes in each box??**
A: The description is wrong -- there is only ONE size included per box/etc.  However, each single size can be used for a wider range of different wire size combinations than can traditional-style single-color wire nuts.

**Q: I want to wire replacement turn signals on my motorcycle, I dont see how these really work? Anybody clue me in?**
A: Hello!
Those  wire nuts are intended for residential and comercial wiring, and NOT FOR automotive (cars, motorcycle, etc) use!, in that case you need to use crimp tubes or welding the wires and after that apply shrink tubes. Other wise yoy will experiment troubles. 
I hope that this information helps you. 
Best Regards, 
J. P.

**Q: Do these have a round wire spring or square wire spring? I'm joining #10 solid to #10 stranded and am concerned about damaging the stranded.**
A: Same rules apply though; lead stranded slightly....it makes sure the stranded is pinched at the lead point of solid, stays tight to solid shaft so less abrasion to stranded

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not an electrician :D
*by V***T on September 16, 2016*

Not an electrician, but I have a lot of outlets and fixtures to wire right now. The actual electrician who put in the new wiring had left a handful of connectors with rubber skirts. I liked the idea of them, so I went in search of more but couldn't find any locally. I'm presently working my way through a box of these 3M connectors, and so far they've been great -- they really do get a good grip on the wires. A recurring issue I'd been having with putting light fixtures on the older '40s wiring was that the copper often shot right out the tip of other nuts after a few hard twists; it's still early days, but so far that's yet to happen with these 3M connectors. Nice! So it's seemed worth it to pay extra for them.
