Review: Didn’t realize how much difference quality wire nuts made - Twisting force to put these on is not excessive & with their core metallurgy/strength they make an exceptionally conductive electrical connection. Could not pull connection apart with all hand taughtness do to their bond . . .yet. . .they can be unscrewed fairly easily. Very unlikely to vibrate or come apart with temperature cycles or strain with inserting outlets, switches or other devices like so many other cheaper alternatives. Don’t want to get too carried away but these are awesome with time savings & not having to redo dozens of connections with each job. THESE WILL SAVE TIME, MONEY & REPUTATION FOR YOUR WORK. Review: Easily the Best Wire Nut/Connectors Made. 10/10 - Professional grade. We used these in the electrical trade so, naturally, when I used all of mine up doing stuff around the house it was an easy go-to for ordering more. They're slightly higher price but well worth the premium. The threads bite and hold the wire inside every time w/o fail. Some of the cheaper ones can sometimes not bite well enough and could lead to issues that you'll need to track down later (at best). The wings on the sides allow you to get better torque to twist wires together for more positive connectivity. The insulation skirt is great for providing that little bit of extra safety buffer to the exposed wires inside. I wish all items I buy had this obvious of a front runner in terms of quality products. This is one of those items that, if you never try anything else, you won't know how great they are because they just work every time and stay where you put them. Once you use inferior wire nuts, you'll understand the value of these. Is it possible to be in love with a wire nut? lol ## Features - Strong biting spring: For a secure, reliable and long-lasting connection in all your pigtail applications - Uniquely flexible spring that has generous room for expansion into greater wire range and reuse - Dual color coded orange/blue: One connector does the job of two traditional connectors in the majority of applications - UL Listed for 600 volts on with copper wire only and 1000 volts maximum in signs and lighting fixtures (luminaries) - Wire range: 22-8 AWG for solid and/or stranded copper conductors - Flexible skirt helps prevent copper exposure for enhanced safety ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00G4RWLEG | | Best Sellers Rank | #22,900 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #10 in IDC Electrical Terminals | | Brand Name | 3M | | Color | Orange/Blue | | Connector Gender | Male | | Connector Type | Spring | | Contact Material | Spring Steel | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 678 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00054007431534 | | Included Components | 500 Orange/Blue Connectors | | Insulation Material | Polypropylene and thermoplastic elastomer | | Insulation Material Type | Polypropylene and thermoplastic elastomer | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 5.3"L x 3.7"W x 8"H | | Item Type Name | 3M PERFORMANCE PLUS WIRE CONNECTOR O/B+JUG, 500 PER JUG | | Manufacturer | 3M | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Maximum Voltage | 1000 volts | | Model | 80611454531 | | Number of Items | 500 | | Part Number | O/B+JUG | | Stud Size | #6-32 or #8-32 | | Temperature Rating | 1000 degree fahrenheit | | Terminal | Copper | | UPC | 054007431534 | | Unit Count | 500 Count | ## Product Details - **Color:** Orange/Blue - **Connector Type:** Spring - **Contact Material:** Spring Steel - **Insulation Material:** Polypropylene and thermoplastic elastomer - **Terminal:** Copper ## Images ![3M Performance Plus Wire Connector, O/B+JUG, 22-12 AWG, Jug of 500 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71H8V-qrmgL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How many connectors are there? 100 or 1000? I can see it says 100 per box and 1000 per case, but I don't know that price it's for one box, or one case** A: I bought the box of 100 connectors for $12. **Q: is this presentation of 10000 pcs?** A: The ad's that are $927.71 from Petrean Solutions are for 10,000 pieces. The ad that is $58.28 is not ours so I can not say if that's for 10,000 or not. **Q: Work for a 10 and a 12?** A: no, it is not rated for 10ga, largest is 12, you should look for the r/y+ **Q: Are these water proof, or at least weather resistent? I want to use to splice wires for landscape lighting** A: There are not rated water resistant, but I use them outside in fixtures where they are protected from water. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Didn’t realize how much difference quality wire nuts made *by B***R on June 22, 2026* Twisting force to put these on is not excessive & with their core metallurgy/strength they make an exceptionally conductive electrical connection.

What I like about them the most is they are small, first off but they fit a wide range of wire sizes unlike your typical small wire nuts that on work or small wire. The rubber shield around the bottom of the nut is a nice touch too especially when using with 12-14 AWG wires. Great product. ## Frequently Bought Together - 3M Performance Plus Wire Connector, O/B+JUG, Orange/Blue, Flexible Steel Spring Connectors, Twist On, CSA Certified, UL Listed, Jug of 500, 22-12 AWG - 3M Performance Plus Wire Connector T/R+POUCH, Tan/Red, Flexible Steel Spring Connectors, Copper, CSA Certified, UL Listed, Pouch of 100, 22-8 AWG - 3M Performance Plus Wire Connector, Flexible Steel Spring Connectors, 22-8 AWG, Red and Yellow Color (R/Y+), Bag of 100 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/33443966-3m-performance-plus-wire-connector-o-b-jug-22-12](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/33443966-3m-performance-plus-wire-connector-o-b-jug-22-12) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
