Over 50 years ago, 3M introduced
the industry’s original insulation
displacement connector—the
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Connector UR.
Today, with increased demand for
high-speed and high-bandwidth
networks, the complete series
of 3M connectors and tools has
evolved again. We’ve leveraged
new technologies while building
on the original successful design,
shape, color-coded cap concepts
and element conguration. With
the Scotchlok series of tools and
connectors from 3M, service
providers can meet the demand
for enhanced customer services
such as high speed internet,
video-on-demand and video
conferencing. 3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Connectors additionally oer full
wire-range capability, increased
port size to accommodate up to
2.08 mm (0.082 in.) insulation
sizes, and solvent resistant
plastic construction.
Durable, insulated
connections on the
rst crimp.
As new technologies migrate into
the local loop, the importance
of reliable connections in the
embedded plant has increased
exponentially. Each connection
is a potential point of failure in
high-bandwidth applications which
could require additional time and
expense for a technician to repair.
That is where the full line of
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Connectors
really makes a dierence.

Butt Connectors
Scotchlok butt connectors
employ a specially designed, wire
insulation displacement contact
to make a reliable electrical
connection to each wire. A “live-
spring” joint is made by driving
the wire down into the “U”
contact connector. This simple
process displaces the insulation
and grasps all conductors with
a rm, resilient pressure, all in
one motion. No stripping of wire
insulation required. Scotchlok
butt connectors include a
factory-installed sealant to
protect against corrosion and
seal out moisture. They are also
available in a dry/ame retardant
version for central oce and
vault. A variety of sizes and wire
combinations are available to
accommodate almost any need.
3M

Scotchlok
™
Butt Connector UR
The Scotchlok UR connector accepts two or three solid
copper conductors for butt splicing. The connector is
lled with a sealant to provide moisture resistance.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Butt Connector UY
The small size of the Scotchlok UY connector
reduces the splicing bundle O.D. to a minimum.
The connector’s two ports accept two solid copper
conductors. The connector is lled with a sealant to
provide moisture resistance.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Butt Connector UR2/UR2-D
The Scotchlok UR2/UR2-D, solvent resistant connectors,
accept two or three solid copper conductors that can
be of dierent wire gauges, for butt splicing. The
UR2 connectors are lled with a sealant to provide
moisture resistance. The Scotchlok UR2-D connector
is a dry version.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Butt Connector UY2/UY2-D
The small size of the Scotchlok UY2/UY2-D, solvent
resistant connectors, reduce the splicing bundle O.D.
to a minimum. Their two ports accept two solid copper
conductors that can be of dierent wire gauges. The
connector is lled with a sealant to provide moisture
resistance. In addition, the Scotchlok UY2 connector is
available in a dry version, Scotchlok UY2-D connector.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Butt Connector UAL
The Scotchlok UAL connector is a sealed, moisture-
resistant two- or three-wire connector. Outside ports
accept solid-copper, aluminum, or a combination of both.
5
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Butt Connector UP2
The Scotchlok UP2 connector is a dry, ame-retardant two-wire
UL-Listed connector for use on paper, pulp or PIC cable where
moisture resistance is not needed. UL recognized component.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Clearing Cap UCC
Each moisture-resistant Scotchlok UCC clearing cap isolates a full cable
pair. The conductors are held rigidly in place with a plastic blade. The
Scotchlok UCC accepts two-wire combinations.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Butt Connector UP3
The Scotchlok UP3 connector is a dry, ame-retardant two- or three-wire
connector for paper, pulp or PIC cable where moisture resistance is not
needed. UL recognized component.
3M

Scotchlok
™
Self-Stripping Dropwire
Connector 557TG2
Use the Scotchlok 557TG2 aerial dropwire connector to electrically
connect two solid copper conductors, insulate the connection and
provide moisture protection.
6
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Tap Connector UB2A/UB2A-D
The Scotchlok UB2A/UB2A-D connectors have a pre-crimp feature that
gives the craftsperson a time-saving edge. By positioning the connector on
the conductor and pre-crimping, the conductor is prevented from slipping
out of the connector before the crimp is completed. A factory sealant
protects against corrosion and seals out moisture. In ready-access closures,
these connectors help eliminate cutting cable pairs, opening circuits, and
piecing out wires. The Scotchlok UB2A-D connector is a dry version of the
Scotchlok UB2A connector.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Inline Connector U1B
The Scotchlok U1B connector is a sealed moisture-resistant four-wire
(1 full pair) inline connector for larger gauge solid copper. AWG 19-16
solid copper conductors.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Inline Connector U1R
The Scotchlok U1R connector is a sealed moisture-resistant four-wire
(1 full pair) inline connector for larger gauge solid copper. AWG 24-19
solid copper conductors.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Inline Connector UDW2
A sealed moisture-resistant, four-wire (1 full pair) inline aerial dropwire
connector for copper or copper-coated steel conductors. This inline
connector is for midspan splices where strain relief is provided. Tape
over-wrap is not required.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Tap Connectors
Scotchlok tap connectors are real time savers. They enable the user to tap into another wire
without interrupting service. A U-shaped element inside each connector displaces insulation
material and makes contact with the copper conductor. Scotchlok tap connectors also include
factory-installed sealant to protect against corrosion and seal out moisture. They are also
available in a dry version for central oce and vault. Scotchlok tap connectors are fast to install,
easy to work with and available in a wide range of common wire gauges. Tap connectors allow
direct tapping into existing solid copper conductors without interrupting service. The pre-crimp
feature helps hold the wires in place until the connector is crimped and the splice is complete.
3M
™
Scotchlok
™
Inline Connectors
Scotchlok inline connectors are a safe and simple way to make a secure connection. These
full-pair, sealed, moisture resistant connectors are designed to accommodate a wide range
of wire ranges.
