Are these satisfactory to use on heavy equipment? 1712323470111.jpegCleaning up some "loose ends" under the cab (mostly 14-18 gauge pilot wires) from rat damage and the wire locations are difficult to get to for crimp connectors & heat shrinking. These look ideal & time saving to boot. Plan to wrap the levers with tape and sleeve the entire harness, best I can. Supposed to handle a range of 12-28 gauge wire. Thanks!

Working on a 20 yr old Hyundai 290LC-7 30 ton Excavator, removing the cab is not feasible or warranted...has access plates underneath. Besides, Mr. Rat chews equally on new wire as patched wire (& has been chewing on the newly placed rat poison). In lieu of tape, will be liberally "caulking" the connectors with JB Weld. BTW, connectors worked great.
