ABSTRACT:
A screw-on wire connector which includes an insulating cap with a bore open at one end for the reception of the stripped ends of wires. A distortable relatively non-expandable sheet metal wire retainer which receives the wires is located in the cap. The wire retainer has a tapered thread which engages the inserted wires. The wire retainer is spaced circumferentially from the inside of the wall of the cap between its ends to provide for circumferential distortion of the wire retainer by the wires without placing an outward load on the cap due to substantial contact between the wire retainer and the cap.
