Catamount® Wire Connectors
In 1914, William Marr invented the world’s first pressure-type wire connector. Since then, these connectors have become synonymous with “best quality wire connectors.” Easy to install and comfortable in the hand, they are indispensable to electricians. And now they’re available as key components of the Catamount for your fingers.

How good are they?
The first thing you’ll notice about Catamount® wire connectors is that they come in a variety of types and styles, making it easy for you to identify wire size at a glance.
Feature for feature, here’s what makes Catamount better than other connectors.

connectors significantly
Catamount® connectors are the ONLY wire connector to
offer a non-winged, variable-volume live-action spring in the connector. The spring expands to receive the conductors, rather than crushing them together as typical non-winged competitors do.
They can handle a broader range of wire connection
combinations.
They’re coated with 100% pure copper, which reduces
the corrosion common to tin- and zinc-coated products.

Catamount® connectors’ “finger friendly” design offers
a truer grip for less hand fatigue during repeated use.
They are the ONLY red non-winged connector that
is UL Listed for a pair of #8 AWG wires.

The high-grade polypropylene outer shell prevents
“blooming” or “blossoming” of the connector sidewall. The outer shell maintains a constant moisture level, reducing the likelihood of the connector becoming dry, brittle to extreme heat or cold.

accidental loosening in high-vibration applications.
Brass Insert
Choice of slot or Robertson set screw. When tightening
into the insert, provides a solid pressure-type connection on all approved wire combinations.
No need to “re-strip” wires when rewiring. Simply
loosen set screw to remove non-twisted wires.
