Ultra flexible (Type 3) stranding resists fatigue due to vibration and flexing. Exceeds all UL 1426, US Coast Guard Charter boat (CFR Title 46) and ABYC standards. Available in multiple gauges and a full spectrum of colors to match proper wiring protocols, these products are essential for anyone building or maintaining electrical systems in demanding applications.</p><h3>Complete Wire Management Solutions</h3><p>Our extensive product line encompasses everything you need for your next wiring project, including wire, cable, terminals, connectors, wire management products, and hand tools. Beyond wire itself, Ancor has developed a comprehensive ecosystem of complementary products. Their <a href="/7231-ancor-wire-tie-17375">wire ties</a> feature UV-resistant construction that won't become brittle in harsh sunlight, while their terminals utilize double-crimp designs for maximum strain relief and connection integrity.</p><p>For vehicle protection needs, Ancor even offers <a href="/7231-ancor-car-cover-1020">car covers</a> engineered to guard against the elements. Meanwhile, specialized components like <a href="/7231-ancor-disc-brake-rotor-1896">disc brake rotors</a> and <a href="/7231-ancor-automatic-transmission-control-solenoid-7752">automatic transmission control solenoids</a> demonstrate the brand's expanding reach into broader automotive applications.</p><h3>Trusted by Professionals, Accessible to All</h3><p>All of our products are built for the harsh marine environment and conform to industry standards. Whether you're rewiring an entire vessel, making repairs to an RV electrical system, or upgrading automotive wiring harnesses, Ancor provides the durability and performance needed for installations that last.

Product Details

The Ancor 230165 Marine Grade Step Down Butt Connectors are designed to join conductors of different wire gauges in marine electrical systems. These yellow-coded connectors accommodate 12-10 AWG wire on the larger end and 16-14 AWG wire on the smaller end, allowing you to create secure connections between different wire sizes.

Key Features:

  • Marine-grade construction for corrosion resistance in harsh saltwater environments
  • Step-down design connects larger 12-10 AWG wire to smaller 16-14 AWG wire
  • Yellow color-coded smaller end for easy wire gauge identification
  • Tinned copper construction prevents corrosion and ensures reliable conductivity
  • Seamless barrel construction provides maximum strength and conductivity
  • Heat-shrink insulation with adhesive lining creates waterproof seal when heated
  • Includes 3 connectors per package

These step-down butt connectors are ideal for marine applications where you need to join conductors of different sizes, such as connecting branch circuits to main power runs or adapting accessories with different wire gauges. The Marine Grade series meets or exceeds UL 486C standards and is built specifically for the demanding marine environment.

I was a first time customer, but will definitely visit Autoplicity.com again! Great prices, and fast shipping! Thanks!!

Prices were very fair, had to check back a few times to the listing to determine if item was sold in pairs and/or individually. Overall however the product looks good.

Great price!

Great price reasonable shipping rate

Quick, easy. I like the great price &amp; free shipping. Only problem is, the item is a black, diamond-plate METAL trailer box. It was packed simply in cardboard, no protective package around it either inside the box or around the item. That's it, ite
