3M 7000005879 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes does the 3M Scotchlok 567 run and tap connector take?
The Scotchlok 567 takes a 12 to 10 AWG run conductor and an 18 to 14 AWG tap. The run is the through wire you are tapping into, the tap is the branch you are adding. Insulation outer diameter is capped at 0.19 inch (4.8 mm) on both the run and the tap, so oversized-jacket wire will not seat even if the copper size is right.
2) Do I have to strip the wires before installing a Scotchlok 567 tap connector?
No stripping. The 567 is an insulation displacement connector, so the tin-plated brass U-contact cuts through the insulation and bites the conductor when you crimp the cap closed. Lay the run wire in the through channel, push the tap into the blind end, and crush the connector shut.
3) What tool do I need to crimp the 3M 567 Scotchlok connector?
3M calls for the E-9BM crimping tool, or a 9 inch lineman's pliers if you don't have the dedicated tool. No other tooling is required, and there is nothing else to buy to complete the splice.
4) Can I use the brown Scotchlok 567 on 120V or 277V branch circuits?
The 567 is rated to a maximum recommended 600 volts and is classed as a low voltage application connector, so 120V and 277V circuits are within its voltage rating. Temperature is the other limit: 105 C (221 F) maximum operating temperature.
5) Is the brown Scotchlok 567 UL Listed, and what is the UL file number?
The 567 is UL Listed under file E23438, and it is also CSA Certified and RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant without exemption. The insulator is flame retardant polypropylene.
6) Can I tap two branch wires off one 567 connector?
No. The 567 handles a maximum of two cores, one run and one tap. If you need a second branch off the same conductor, install a second connector further along the run.
7) Can I reopen a Scotchlok 567 to move the tap later?
Treat it as permanent. The 567 does not offer interrupt free shifting, so once the cap is crimped and the U-contact has pierced the insulation, the splice is not meant to be opened and relocated. Cut it out and install a fresh connector if the tap point changes.
8) Why is the Scotchlok 567 brown, and does the color mean anything?
Color is how Scotchlok IDC connectors are sorted by wire range in the field. Brown polypropylene on this one identifies the 12-10 AWG run, 18-14 AWG tap combination, so a crew can grab the right connector out of a bin without reading the part number. The color is in the insulation itself, not printed on.
9) How does the 3M 567 Scotchlok ship, and where is it made?
It ships in bin packaging, 250 units per case, made in the United States. That bin format is what fleet shops and service trucks stock for repeat low voltage tap work on autos, boats, vans and trailers.
