King Innovation’s Gorilla Nuts™ Product Line Expanded
November 1, 2010 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
O’FALLON, MO – King Innovation has expanded its revolutionary Gorilla Nuts™ line to include two more cushion grip wire connectors. A smaller version which covers all orange/blue wire combinations and a larger version which covers all blue/gray wire combinations have been added.
Currently, the Gorilla Nuts line consists of a wire connector which covers all red/yellow wire combinations, and handles up to 5 #12’s. These two product additions contain the same industry leading attributes as the original, but provide coverage for additional wire ranges. Specifically, the Orange/Blue Connector covers #22-8 AWG, up to 3 #12’s max, and the Blue/Gray Connector covers #14-6 AWG, up to 2 #6’s max.
Gorilla Nuts are designed with an over-molded material, which creates a distinctive cushion sensation, a flexible grip, and a unique feel. A Torque Performance Exterior (TPE) means that Gorilla Nuts out-perform comparable wire connectors when it comes to grip and torque. Gorilla Nuts’ patented design is also the first to feature Sharp Wire Technology™ (SWT) combined with our dual-performing WorkSkirt™. Sharp Wire Technology means that the spring is square cut and expertly designed, using a maximum edge for the most secure connections. The WorkSkirt not only protects over-stripped wires, but also allows Gorilla Nuts the flexibility to fit into tight spaces.
Gorilla Nuts offer Contractors and Electricians real inventory reduction. These three connectors can replace eight (8) connectors and provide comprehensive wire range coverage. For those Contractors who find their hands cut, calloused, or just plain sore from twisting hard plastic wire connectors, Gorilla Nuts are the solution to feeling better. Now with coverage of additional wire ranges, Gorilla Nuts continue to be cost effective and are the only connector you will need for the job. Feel the torque, feel the difference!

King Innovation’s ACE Connectors™ Enable Quality, Clean Looking Connections
OCTOBER 1, 2009 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
O’FALLON, MO—If clean looking installations are important to you, do not sacrifice the quality of your connection for aesthetic value. King Innovation’s ACE Connector™ creates a solid mechanical connection, while fitting seamlessly into your low voltage installation.
The ACE Connector is designed for low voltage landscape lighting and direct bury applications. Particularly suited for installations where a discrete connection is preferred, the solid brass lug fits seamlessly up against decks, landscape lights, trees, ground, etc.
Installation is easy, simply insert wires into brass lug, secure set screws, and cover with fast curing heat shrink. The set screw thread pitch allows for the tighter securing of wires, without over torquing, for a solid connection. A fast curing heat shrink with a sealant lining is 25% longer than competitive products, to cover the ACE Connector. This helps resist harsh outdoor elements and water intrusion for a permanent quality connection.
King’s ACE Connector is capable of handling solid and stranded wire combinations between min #18 and max #8 AWG. Maximum voltage is 30V.
