A new, patented splice that features a unisex style self-locking disconnect which securely mates to itself and will not pull apart is being offered by ETCO Incorporated of Warwick, Rhode Island.

The ETCO FlatSnap Splice is a serviceable connection that can rapidly mate and un-mate without force or performance degradation and cannot pull apart or vibrate loose under adverse conditions. Featuring a large surface contact area, the unisex design simplifies assembly, inventory, and repairs and prevents accidental disconnection by pulling on the spliced wire.

Available in 0.016” thick brass, the ETCO FlatSnap Splice can be modified to special OEM requirements as a posi-loc terminal. Applications include replacing permanent wire splices, an alternative to male blades on terminal blocks, switches, and PC boards, and other applications where secure connections are desirable.

The ETCO FlatSnap Splice is priced from $ 25.00 to $ 400.00 per 1,000 pieces. Literature, samples, and price quotations are available upon request.
