30 Amp Anderson Powerpole Connectors, PP15 to 45, Red and Black Housing, w/12-16 AWG Heavy Duty Contact 30A, 600V (Pack of 12 Set)

These are genuine Anderson power poles with logos and markings in the plastic identical to other power poles I have. These are essential connectors in the amateur radio world. Price is good and free shipping for Prime customers clinches the deal.

Anderson Powerpole is the standard in Ham radio. I use them for all my DC power connections. I recommend them highly. I will not use anything but genuine Anderson Powerpole connectors.

These connectors/housings are an industry standard. I have no interest in using cheaper imported imitations. They're a good value for what you get; that it, a reliable connector that's relatively easy to assemble IF the Anderson instructions are followed. They have YouTube videos available. If you don't want to use the Anderson tool for assembly, a 1/8" flat blade screwdriver is much better than a pointed tool for seating the connector in the housing.Regarding whether they fit a particular gauge of wire, I can "conclusively" say that the included 30A connectors (the plastic part is the housing) fit SOME 12 gauge wire but not all. I tried stranded Southwire brand stranded 12 ga and it fit easily but that is not a type of wire that's appropriate for connections where constant moving and flexing is expected as it only has 19 coarse strands. I also tried some very flexible silicone insulated 12 gauge wire that has 680 very fine strands and it was too large to fit the 30A connectors.

Seems to be a quality build and no issue with crimping the contacts. Even tho the description didn't say that they came with it, be for warned that there are no roll pins to hold the two pieces tightly together.

I used to use these back in my RC days, I never thought I’d be back to them in my radio hobby, but I am! Their a good connector, I’ve never had a failure from one

High quality genuine PowerPole connectors. High quality connectors. Work great, and hold well.

Decent product, but the steel connectors tend to pop out. Not for regular connect and disconnect.

Andersen power poles are the best for amateur radio projects and these work well.
