The Step-Down Butt Connector's from FTZ Industries offer up a great solution in certain situations. If you're looking to simply step down from one wire size to another, this is a simple, quick and easy way to accomplish a secure connection. These can also be used to join two smaller wires into one larger wire, say to split a wire run to two fixtures, from one main "trunk" cable.

So... What does this mean for you?
We've used a lot of different electrical wire crimps over the years. They have come from various sources, like marine hardware stores, online outlets, hardware stores, etc and cover everything from common, quality brands to unknown brands from overseas. The combination of US quality control and UL approval means a lot to us. Many folks look at an electrical connector and think they're all the same and look for the cheapest option. We view them as a critical component of a DC electrical system and a potential source of concern. That's why we choose FTZ as our product line of choice.
