ScotchlokTM Tap Connector for Splicing one wire into an existing wire:
16-22AWG Wire (solid or stranded)

Perfect for splicing track feeders to a bus cable or any type of splice connection. Just place the two wires inside the connector and crimp closed with a pair of pliers. The double bladed metal connector cuts through the insulation and makes firm contact with the wire. For smaller wire sizes please see the UG connector below.

NOTE #1: Please notice that this connector has a U-shaped, 2-sided metal insert, other brands have only a single-sided insert which does not seem to grip the wire as well.
NOTE #2: Our testing shows that this product will work reliably with 14AWG wire for the purposes of Model Railroad electronics. We have used the product on a local layout for connecting 22 gauge feeders to a 14 gauge bus wire without any problems.
