New! Gorilla Nuts™ Cushion Grip Wire Connectors

allison — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 21:13:17 +0000

The way you see and feel electrical connections will never be the same; Gorilla Nuts™ cushion grip connectors have raised connector technology to a whole new platform. King Innovation President Frank Vlasaty notes, “In side by side comparisons to other connectors on the market, virtually everyone chose Gorilla Nuts.” Designed for comfort, Gorilla Nuts are equipped with over-molded material that forms a flexible cushion grip. A Torque Performance Exterior (TPE) means that Gorilla Nuts out-perform comparable wire connectors when it comes to really tightening down connections. The patented Gorilla Nuts design is the first to feature Sharp Wire Technology™ (SWT) combined with our dual-performing WorkSkirt™. The spring is square cut and expertly designed, using a maximum edge for more secure connections. The Gorilla Nut WorkSkirt not only protects over-stripped wires, but also allows connectors to contract and fit tight spaces. Gorilla Nuts cover the entire red/yellow wire range for both solid and stranded wire, and easily fits 5 #12s.
