Tool-Free Inline Splice Connectors FAQ

Product questions

Find answers about fit, wiring and product differences.

Tool-Free Inline Splice Connectors

01Does tool-free mean that any conductor will fit?

No. The terminal has a defined conductor type and size range. Flexible conductors may need specific preparation; follow the terminal instructions.

02Are tools unnecessary for the whole installation?

Tool-free describes the terminal operation. Cable stripping, gland tightening and other assembly steps may still need tools.

KCM20 Push-in In-Line Connector

KCM20 Push-in In-Line Connector

01How do I choose a 3-contact KCM20?

KCM20-03 is the 3-contact version for 5–8 mm cable. KCM20-04 is the 3-contact version for 9–12 mm cable.

02Which cable diameters fit this KCM20?

The seal options cover 5–8 or 9–12 mm. These are cable-jacket diameters, separate from the conductor cross-section.

KCM25 Lever-Terminal In-Line Connector

KCM25 Lever-Terminal In-Line Connector

01Which KCM25 model has 5 contacts and a 10–14 mm cable seal?

KCM25-13 is the 5-contact, 10–14 mm cable version. KCM25-11 and KCM25-12 use 5–8 mm and 9–12 mm seals respectively.

02Which cable diameters fit this KCM25?

The seal options cover 5–8, 9–12 or 10–14 mm. These are cable-jacket diameters, separate from the conductor cross-section.

03How is the KCM25 lever version distinguished from ZXM25?

Order the KCM25 lever-operated body with its contact count and cable seal. ZXM25 also identifies a separate screw-terminal range, so the terminal mechanism must be part of the product description.

ZXFTM25 Press-Terminal Modular Connector

ZXFTM25 Press-Terminal Modular Connector

01How does ZXFTM25 differ from KCM25?

ZXFTM25 uses a press-type wiring module. KCM25 uses lever-operated terminals. Both have a 0.5–2.5 mm² conductor range, but their operating mechanisms differ.

02Which cable diameters fit this ZXFTM25?

The seal options cover 5–8, 9–12 or 10–14 mm. These are cable-jacket diameters, separate from the conductor cross-section.

03Which reference should I use to order the modular ZXFTM25?

FTM25-15, -16 and -17 have 2 contacts; FTM25-18, -19 and -20 have 3 contacts. Each group offers 5–8, 9–12 and 10–14 mm cable seals respectively.
