Experience Industry-Leading Wire Combinations with the Twister ProFLEX MAX

The new Twister ProFLEX MAX supports 345 UL-approved wire combinations – triple the number of its closest market
competition. The blue-and-gray connector is rated up to 1000V, fits #14 to #6 AWG wires, and accommodates everything from three #12 AWG wires to one #6 AWG with two #8 AWG wires.

Introducing the Versatile Twister ProFLEX PLUS

The Twister ProFLEX PLUS is the second new addition to the ProFLEX family. This tan-and-yellow connector boasts the widest wire range of any tan/yellow connector on the market. Designed for #22 to #8 AWG wires, the ProFLEX PLUS accommodates everything from three #22 AWG wires to three #10 AWG wires. This versatile connector is rated for up to 600V in building wire and up to 1000V in fixtures and signs.

The Features of the Twister Pro Wire Connector Family

The new connectors maintain all the popular features of the existing Twister Pro family. Each twist-on connector is engineered with a patented SureGripTM overmold and high-leverage wings for enhanced torque and comfort during installation. The waxed, open-coil spring ensures the connector grabs quickly and tightens smoothly, while the UL 94V-2 flame-retardant shell provides extra security. Every ProFLEX connector also includes a flexible skirt that adds extra protection and ensures a better fit in tight electrical boxes. The connector family is perfect for countless wiring situations, such as wiring a 3-way switch.
