Part# 10-05470
MFR Model# OLC-2

Overview

The OLC-2 eliminates the needs for soldering, crimps, and expensive connectors, all while creating a perfect connection between two wires. The two wires are stripped 3/8” and then slid into opposing ends of the OLC-2, where they overlap each other. A set screw on the side of the OLC-2 is gently tightened, and presses into the overlapping wires, creating a cold solder joint where the two wires meet. The OLC-2 can also be used to create perfect connections with Thermocouple wire, which means no more bulky TC connections.

Wire Compatibility: Minimum Gauge - 24awg, Maximum Gauge - 16awg

EI OVERLAP CONNECTOR OLC-2

These work great, but theyre not overlap connectors. The OLC-1 , with a single set-screw, is an overlap connector. The OLC-2 is made for mostly single-strand thermocouple wire and the wires dont need to touch inside the connector, hence the 2 set-screws.

The best type K thermocouple wire connector out there. Simple, streamline, fast and secure. Way better to use this than the JPI ring connector method.
