## Overview

The 3M Performance Plus Wire Connector R/Y+JUG is a dual-color coded, expandable spring wire connector designed to replace traditional red and yellow connectors.

Sold in a bulk pack of 500, it offers professional-grade reliability and efficiency for all your wiring needs.

## Description

Work smarter, not harder, with the 3M Performance Plus Wire Connector R/Y+. It offers a quick-biting spring so you get a tight, reliable connection every time. This single R/Y+ connector replaces your traditional red and yellow connectors to give you more work room. You can use this connector in almost any industrial application where you need to connect and insulate copper wires.

Review: These are pretty good marrettes. I've used them up to 8-10awg with success, more often I'm doing 12 and 14 which these are perfect for. They bite very well, and if you have to take them off they still come off without buggering the copper or shearing it off inside the marrette. I'll be using these for the foreseeable future.
Review: These are great and a good value.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: the description in one spot says jug of 500 while another says # of items is 4000.  Is it 500 or 4000 for the $51.31?**
A: It is 500 Red/Yellow wirenuts great for #12 Thhn or even a couple #10s

**Q: Is it 4000 or 500 wire nuts? Title is a little misleading**
A: They have a bag, a jug, and a keg. The jug is 500, and the keg is 17,000.  The keg really gets the cost per piece down, but that's a lot of wire nuts.

**Q: How much is the weight?**
A: I never paid any attention to the weight.  I love these dual sized (yellow wire nut + red wire nut) wire nuts.  They simplify things tremendously.

**Q: Is this nuts big enough to use with high hats! Thanks**
A: No it's way too small.  These are only for joining wire together, not threading onto a cymbal stands.  A giant version of this might look pretty cool though.
