Heat Shrink Sleeves

Heat Shrink Sleeves, also known as solder sleeves, are a great accessory for making insulated connections between our 12V LED lights and 12V power supplies and accessories. They require no soldering or special tools. Simply slide the ends of each of your two wire sections into the connector so that they make contact, then shrink the connector using a hair dryer or heat gun. In minutes, this connector makes a strong and safe connection that is weatherproof, waterproof, and dustproof.

Heat shrink connectors are available in four sizes, each of which accommodates a different gauge wire:

• 3-5 AWG (yellow)
• 6-9 AWG (blue)
• 10-13 AWG (red)
• 14 AWG (white)

We recommend using the Red solder sleeve for most of the wiring on our fixtures, and connectors, as they are usually 12 AWG. Using this heat shrink sleeve lets you avoid using a bulky wire nut or a crimp connector that might come loose and which is not weathrproof.
