Anybody know a distributor for Nicopress sleeves, etc. in US?
I'm in need of a few Al sleeves for 4 AWG and haven't had any luck at
all locally or even online search.
Have query in to Nicopress but thought I'd see if anybody knows of
distributors....the locals have for #10 fencing wire and cables but
claim can't get anything but full lots on order of anything else...
I buy them from McMaster, and usually end up with more than I need in
small sizes. But it looks like they sell large sizes in smaller
quantities.
Unless they're somewhere on the McM/C site I'm not looking I can't find
anything except those for wire rope whereas I'm looking for UF cable
splicing--Nicopress 4AL-STR-M/P/X or equivalent. They're roughly 3" in
length instead of short as for the cable types...

Hopefully, Nicopress will get back eventually. I'm trying to line up
pieces-parts to have on hand when weather warms up and ground thaws out
enough to finish digging up the line to the fountain heaters in the
feedlot that have had to have a long extension cord to keep going this
winter which has been a pita...the previous patch failed with a regular
clamp connector.
Sorry, I saw Nicopress, ignored the 4AWG, and assumed aircraft cable.
You might want to expand your search to other mfrs - Burndy is the
first that comes to mind. For example:
http://ecat.burndy.com/Comergent/burndy/product/YS4CA1
http://www.drillspot.com/products/67...t_cable_splice
http://www.electriciansupplies.com/p...ndy-YS4CA1.htm
AMP and T&B are bound to have equivalents.
Ah! Thanks, that was most helpful...I couldn't come up w/ the Burndy
name as a good searching aid and it didn't come up in any of the search
I'd done on a comparative match...
Nicopress did respond w/ a distributor in Dodge -- that's at least
within 100 miles altho they're one I've not dealt with prior. I'll
contact them as well and see whether their one of the
reasonable-to-deal-with or whether are the "sock to the OTC buyer" type
of so many like the local (and only full-line) electrical parts
distributor is.
