Get the most out of your home audio system by ensuring the best connection from your speaker cable to your receiver with Deadbolt Banana plugs. The self-crimping teeth on these plugs provides a simple, secure, and low-profile connection without requiring soldering or screws.
How to Install Deadbolt Banana Plugs
- Unscrew the cap off the Deadbolt Banana Plug.
- Feed the bare conductor of the speaker wire through the center hole of the banana plug. (strip wire about 1/2")
- Bend the wires of the speaker wire down around the teeth.
- Replace the cap to secure the speaker wire.
- Your Deadbolt Banana Plug is ready for connection.
Why use Banana Plugs?
Many electronics use the banana plug interface, also known as binding post (referring to this connection in its female form). This female binding post connection that accepts this banana plug is found on virtually all audio/video receivers, speaker wall plates, and more.
Banana plugs offer an alternative to inserting a bare speaker wire into the equipment. Often a bare speaker connection is not as reliable as a guaranteed banana plug connection. Wires tend to get pulled out or frizzy after time passes. Banana plugs require only one install, giving you a permanent and robust connector at the end of your speaker wire.

chris eickhoff (ozzyike) by far my favorite speaker wire ends, can't imagine any other style that offers the connection and secureness that these offer, I have the straight and 90 degree banana plugs and also the stranded wire style, all are amazing.

Tom Stec (tslimlimit4) This is the way to make a solid connection for speakers and other audio equipment, the best.

Kirk Vernon No tiny screws to try and manipulate or lose. Work great and allows you to build any length cable you need way cheaper than any pre-made cables I've found! I just ordered my 3rd set of 12 pairs of the Deadbolt Banana Plugs.

Kris Havlik I really like the way these twist together and hold the wire in place so far working great.
