3M promises innovative,
quality products and services that make your life easier and better, from
a company you can trust. Our experienced engineers and sales staff work
with you to find the best solution for your applications and arrange delivery
where and when you need it. The 3MTM U-Clamp Interconnect System supports
its time-and-money-saving features with the reliable mass-termination IDC
pioneered by 3M in the early 60's; and a contemporary, rugged, proven latch
and lock design.
The 3M u-clamp is a two-piece, discrete wire interconnect
system that allows installers to terminate without crimping or other preparation,
reducing labor costs. Even better, the transparent plug cover has a temporary
hold feature that helps the installer to accurately position each wire
and to visually check wire placement before termination.
This makes it easier to get a solid connection every time,
reducing the possibility of faulty interconnections. You waste less time
and materials and get a more reliable result. The u-clamp plug transparent
cover is color coded for different wire sizes and to help minimize costly
mistakes.
Common applications include
