Communication Markets Division 3M™ Scotchlok™ Connectors Built tough for long-term connections
Durable, insulated connections on the first crimp. Over 50 years ago, 3M introduced the industry’s original insulation displacement connector—the 3M™ Scotchlok™ Connector UR. Today, with increased demand for high-speed and high-bandwidth networks, the complete series of 3M connectors and tools has evolved again. We’ve leveraged new technologies while building on the original successful design, shape, color-coded cap concepts and element configuration.
3M™ Scotchlok™ Butt Connectors Scotchlok butt connectors employ a specially designed, wire insulation displacement contact to make a reliable electrical connection to each wire. A “livespring” joint is made by driving the wire down into the “U” contact connector. This simple process displaces the insulation and grasps all conductors with a firm, resilient pressure, all in one motion. No stripping of wire insulation required.
3M™ Scotchlok ™ Butt Connector UP2 The Scotchlok UP2 connector is a dry, flame-retardant two-wire UL-Listed connector for use on paper, pulp or PIC cable where moisture resistance is not needed. UL recognized component. 3M™ Scotchlok ™ Clearing Cap UCC Each moisture-resistant Scotchlok UCC clearing cap isolates a full cable pair. The conductors are held rigidly in place with a plastic blade. The Scotchlok UCC accepts two-wire combinations.
3M™ Scotchlok™ Tap Connectors Scotchlok tap connectors are real time savers. They enable the user to tap into another wire without interrupting service. A U-shaped element inside each connector displaces insulation material and makes contact with the copper conductor. Scotchlok tap connectors also include factory-installed sealant to protect against corrosion and seal out moisture. They are also available in a dry version for central office and vault.
3M™ Scotchlok™ Tools To complement our line of efficient, reliable 3M™ Scotchlok Connectors, 3M™ Scotchlok™ Crimping Tools are built to do the job right, and do it fast. All Scotchlok tools are engineered to fit comfortably in hand while providing high mechanical advantage for less operator fatigue. From automatic cartridges to adjustable jaws, there’s a tool designed to meet your specific application needs.
