Blackburn SAPT 6-26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Blackburn SAPT 6-26 splice and tap connector take?
The SAPT 6-26 is sized for #6 stranded aluminum AWG conductor. It is a compression connector, so it has to be crimped with the correct die, not bolted or torqued down.
2) Will the Blackburn SAPT 6-26 work on #4 or #8 aluminum?
No. The SAPT 6-26 is a single-size compression connector built for #6 stranded aluminum. Other conductor sizes need the matching SAPT catalogue number for that AWG, since the barrel and crimp die are size specific.
3) What is a pin-type overhead splice and tap connector used for?
It terminates a stranded aluminum conductor and presents a solid tin-plated pin that can be landed in a lug, breaker or terminal block rated for copper. On an overhead service that is how you splice or tap without putting bare aluminum strands into a copper-only termination. The Blackburn SAPT 6-26 does this for #6 stranded aluminum.
4) Is the Blackburn SAPT 6-26 reusable or a one-time crimp?
One-time. It is a compression fitting, so once it is crimped onto the conductor it cannot be backed off and reused. If you are pulling a splice apart, plan on a new connector.
5) Is the Blackburn SAPT 6-26 sold individually or in a bag?
Each. The SAPT 6-26 is sold as a single connector, so order one per splice or tap point.
6) Is the Blackburn SAPT 6-26 made in the USA?
Yes, country of origin is the United States. That matters on public and institutional work carrying domestic sourcing requirements.
