Panduit ESV18BX-Q – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How much insulation do I strip before crimping a Panduit ESV18 butt splice?
Strip about 7.9 mm of insulation off each conductor. That lands the bare copper fully into the barrel from each end without leaving exposed wire outside the splice. The funnel entry barrel helps guide stranded ends in without birdcaging.
2) Can I use this red butt splice on a 480V control circuit?
Yes. The ESV18BX-Q is rated to 600V maximum (0.6 kV), which covers 480V control and power wiring as well as the usual 120/277V circuits.
3) Will a vinyl insulated splice hold up in a hot equipment enclosure?
The vinyl insulation on the ESV18BX-Q is rated to 105 C (221 F) per CSA, which covers most motor control centers and equipment cabinets. For anything running hotter than that continuously, step up to a nylon or heat shrink insulated splice instead.
4) Is the Panduit ESV18BX-Q splice barrel bare copper or plated?
Copper base material with a tin plating. The tin plate is what keeps the contact resistance stable and resists corrosion on the crimp over time, which matters in damp mechanical rooms and outdoor-adjacent panels.
5) How many Panduit ESV18BX-Q splices come in a pack, and what is the minimum order?
The standard package is 25 pieces. The standard carton holds 250, and the minimum order quantity is 250, so an order works out to ten 25-piece packs.
6) Does the Panduit ESV18BX-Q meet UL, CSA and RoHS requirements for a spec job?
It is UL Listed and CSA Certified, and it is RoHS compliant. It also carries no mercury content and is not flagged as hazardous material, which simplifies submittals on healthcare, education, and government work.
7) What is the difference between a butt splice like this and a ring or fork terminal?
A butt splice joins two conductor ends inline, one wire crimped into each end of the barrel. It does not land on a screw or stud. If you need to terminate at a terminal block, breaker lug, or ground bar, you want a ring or fork terminal in the same 22-18 AWG range instead. Use the ESV18BX-Q for extending a run, repairing a cut conductor, or splicing a control lead.
8) Is this splice short enough to fit inside a crowded wireway or junction box?
Overall length is 1.03 inches (26.2 mm), so the finished splice adds just over an inch to the run. That fits comfortably in a wireway, device box, or behind a panel gutter without forcing a bigger bend radius.
9) Where is the Panduit StrongHold ESV18BX-Q made, and how much does a carton weigh for shipping?
Country of origin is Mexico. A standard carton of 250 weighs half a pound and measures 9.1 by 4.4 by 4.35 inches, so full-case buying adds essentially nothing to a freight bill.
