Use the IW-16 PLUG with the IWM-BPG, IW-BPG or IW-BG series In-Wall Jack plates. If used with the IWM-BPG series jack plates, crimp on the bananas in the inside of the J-Box, and plug into the back side of the jack plates for a clean and really fast installation Review: Fast and easy! - I really liked not having to use a soldering iron. I have a Harbor Freight (p/n 36411) 9-1/2” crimping tool - nearly identical to the desertcart Basics crimping tool - which made extremely tight crimps with these banana plugs very easily. I have no question whatsoever about the conductivity or strength of the connection. I highly recommend these when installed with a decent crimping tool. They don’t look as cool as the anodized aluminum plugs with machined and knurled surfaces, but as a practical solution, trying to get great sound out of a high quality hi-fi system, I can’t imagine anything faster, easier, or better. Review: Amazing when soldered - Although these banana plugs are designed to be crimped onto the ends of speaker wire, I found that soldering them to the ends worked much better. If you look at the picture I added showing the plugs and red and black covers in their separate bags, you can see that the end of the plug itself is a tube into which you insert the bare wire. I'd estimate that the tube can accommodate up to about gauge 12 wire. I used 16 gauge wire. If you tin the wire and flux the inside of this tube, soldering the wire into the tube is very simple and creates an absolutely rock solid connection between the plug and the wire. The other benefit of this approach is that you can, if you need to, remove the plugs from the wires - just heat up the end of the plug with your soldering iron and slide the wire out. The low-profile flexible covers make inserting and removing the plugs from amps and speakers very easy. Some banana plugs are much bulkier and can crowd the back of a multi-channel AV receiver. These are just right - slim, yet easy to grip. Why only 4 stars? The price seems a bit high for these. If they sold for a couple dollars less for 16, I'd give them 5 stars. Despite this one quibble, I rate them a better bang for the buck than the other plugs offered by desertcart. Nice plugs that allow crimping or soldering for a solid, professional speaker connection. ## Features - 4 banana plugs make one 4-conductor connection-required for both pairs of a stereo connection - Solderless connection - Gold plated - Crimp-on type connector - 16 pk-8 red, 8 black ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00009ZOIZ | | Amperage | 16 A | | Brand | SYLVANIA | | Brand Name | SYLVANIA | | Color | BLACK | | Connector Type | Plug in | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 67 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00769381541167 | | Included Components | Gold-Plated Crimp-on Banana Plugs, 16 pk | | Item Type Name | Pro-Wire Gold-Plated Crimp-on Banana Plugs, 16 pk Home Audio Crossover, BLACK (IW-16PLUG) | | Item Weight | 3.2 ounces | | Manufacturer | OEM Systems Company | | Model | IW-16PLUG | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | IW-16PLUG | | UPC | 769381541167 | ## Images ![OEM Systems Pro-Wire Solderless Crimp-On Banana Plugs, 16 Pack (IW-16PLUG) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HrGOV6u7L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Country of origen?** A: Nothing stamped on the item as to where it was manufactured , however very poor quality. Would not recommend . Hope this helps **Q: Will 8aug or 10ga wire fit into these for a solder connection?** A: 10 gauge absolutely, I'm not so sure of 8. I used 10 gauge and crimped, and it's been a couple of years, so I'm not sure how loose it was. Good day! **Q: What is the amp rating for these?** A: These are for audio speaker level voltages, which are DC, (not AC) . As such they live in the " low-voltage" family of electrical measurements. They'll accept up to 12g speaker wire' If your amp puts out more than 300W RMS/Chan I'd probably advise a heavier connector ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast and easy! *by D***D on September 20, 2021* I really liked not having to use a soldering iron.

Quality is great. The spoked part of the plug is stamped onto the shaft and rotates freely, so I'm not sure if these would hold up as well as other plugs after many repetitions of on-off. For a DIY speaker cable for home theater they work perfectly, just add wire and heatshrink. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/22454437-oem-systems-pro-wire-solderless-crimp-on-banana-plugs-16](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/22454437-oem-systems-pro-wire-solderless-crimp-on-banana-plugs-16) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-10-17*
