Panduit BS18-C – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Why would I pick a non-insulated butt splice over a vinyl or nylon insulated one?
Two reasons drive it. A bare barrel lets you see the conductor seated in the splice before and after crimping, which matters on inspected panel work. And it lets you choose your own insulation, usually adhesive-lined heat shrink, when the joint needs strain relief or a moisture seal that a factory sleeve will not give. If you want the joint insulated straight out of the crimp with no second step, an insulated butt splice in the same 22-18 AWG range is the easier choice.
2) Is the BS18-C rated for high-temperature equipment wiring?
It carries a 150 C (302 F) temperature rating under both UL and CSA, which covers motor control compartments, equipment enclosures, and machine wiring that runs hot. Maximum voltage is 2000V (2kV).
3) How many butt splices come in a box, and what is the minimum I can order?
Standard package is 100 pieces, and 100 is also the minimum order quantity, so one box is the smallest buy. The full carton holds 1,000 pieces if you are stocking an MRO crib or a panel shop.
4) What crimp tool and die do I need for a standard-barrel butt splice like this?
The BS18-C uses a standard barrel, so it crimps with ordinary non-insulated terminal tooling set for the 22-18 AWG range rather than a brazed-seam or heavy-duty die. Match the die to the conductor size, not the splice length, and crimp each end separately.
5) Can I use the same splice on both solid and stranded conductors?
Yes. The 22-18 AWG range applies to solid and stranded copper alike, both running 22 AWG minimum to 18 AWG maximum. That lets you splice stranded field wire to solid device leads with one part number instead of stocking two.
6) Will tin-plated copper splices hold up in a damp or corrosive environment?
The BS18-C uses a copper base with a tin plating, which is the standard combination for resisting oxidation on a bare connection. It is still a non-insulated barrel though, so in a wet or washdown location the crimp itself has to be sealed with adhesive-lined shrink tubing to keep moisture out of the joint.
7) Is the Panduit BS18-C acceptable on a Buy American / ARRA-funded project?
It is flagged ARRA compliant. Country of origin is Mexico, which matters if your specification calls out domestic manufacture specifically rather than ARRA compliance.
