O’FALLON, MO—King Innovation’s DryConn® line of waterproof connectors has added a new item for use with tracer line wire. The DryConn® Split Bolt Housing surrounds splices in gas, cathodic, water and telecom splices to protect them from the harsh outdoor elements.

First, low voltage (50V) connections are made using split bolts with #14 – #10 gauge wire. Then, the DryConn® Split Bolt Housing is used to encapsulate the splice making it waterproof, corrosion proof, and able to be buried directly into the ground. The housing is filled with a non-toxic SmartGel®, which not only protects your splice but also is re-enterable to ensure connections are secured properly. Available in three colors (Yellow, Aqua and Orange) the DryConn® Split Bolt Housing may be used across several industries.

O’FALLON, MO—DryConn®, the original brand of waterproof wire connectors, has added a crimp connector to its line of connectors used in irrigation systems and low voltage landscape lighting.

The Dry-Crimp wire connector is a two-part system that allows installers to first crimp wire and test for conductivity, and then secure with a waterproof housing. There are two crimp sizes available to cover a wire range between #18 and #10 AWG, and the waterproof housing is filled with a dielectric silicone sealant to ensure a waterproof and corrosion proof splice. The three holes in the housing tightly seal around wires (or seal when no third wire is used) to ensure continuous splice protection.

King Innovation Design Engineer Bill Hiner paid close attention to detail when designing the Dry-Crimp connector, from the size of the crimp (must fit three #10’s!) to the amount of silicone contained in the housing. The end product was worth all the effort; feel confident when you install the DryConn Dry-Crimp connector!

O’FALLON, MO—DryConn®, the original brand of waterproof wire connectors, has added a well connector to its line.

The HSC Connector is a UL Listed butt connector in conjunction with a heat shrink. First, wires are inserted into the butt style connector and crimped for a secure connection. Then, the heat shrink surrounds splices to protect them from harsh outdoor elements and water intrusion. Not only does the heat shrink waterproof the splice, it is also transparent for visible splice examination. Manufacturer approved for direct bury and temporary submersion, the HSC connector is an ideal choice for well pump connections.

The HSC Connector is available in four pack sizes (HSC-1, HSC-2, HSC-3 and HSC-4). Together the four connectors span a wire range between #14 – #4 AWG for use in a variety of outdoor applications.

O’FALLON, MO—King Innovation, the leader in waterproof wire connectors, has added a new item to its line of accessories, the Ball Bearing Probe.

The Ball Bearing Probe is used in the irrigation industry to locate sprinkler lines, measure moisture penetration, or avoid roots pipe, and rocks when digging.  Its key feature is a rounded head.  This tip reduces the risk to tree roots, wires, pipelines etc., when prodding the ground, and also makes for smooth ground penetration and pull-out.  The shaft of the probe itself is made of durable steel that will withstand prolonged use outdoors, but is also lightweight for easy portability to and from job sites.  The ergonomic, cushion grip handle reduces stress on hands, making the Ball Bearing Probe both easy and comfortable for the user.

The Ball Bearing Probe joins tote trays, cable ties, organizing buckets, tree watering bags, staples, and more to complete King Innovation’s line of accessories for the irrigation, electrical, and utility marketplace.
