SPT2 Slide-On Vampire Plugs

SPT2 slide-on vampire plugs are the heavier-insulation counterpart to our SPT1 plugs: cut SPT2 zipcord to length, slide a plug onto each end, and snap it closed — the piercing pins make the connection with no stripping or soldering.


The line includes male plugs, female plugs, and female inline pass-through plugs in green and white. These plugs fit SPT2 wire only — SPT1 wire has thinner insulation and needs SPT1 plugs. Every product here is backed by our Reindeer Proof™ Warranty.

How to Use SPT2 Vampire Plugs

SPT2 zipcord carries thicker insulation than SPT1, and these plugs are sized for exactly that jacket. The workflow is the same: cut the wire to the exact length your run needs, slide a plug onto each end, snap it shut, and the pins pierce through to the conductors — a custom extension cord in seconds per connection.

Plug placement follows the standard rules: male plugs at the start of the run where it meets power, plain female plugs at the end of the run, and female inline pass-through plugs anywhere along the line when you need a mid-run outlet.

Match the plug family to the wire every time — SPT2 plugs will not seat correctly on SPT1's thinner insulation, and SPT1 plugs will not close over SPT2. Every product here is backed by our Reindeer Proof™ Warranty.

SPT2 Vampire Plugs FAQ

Answers to common questions about SPT2 slide-on vampire plugs, including SPT1 vs SPT2 differences, plug placement, and building custom cords.

What is the difference between SPT1 and SPT2?

Both are 18-gauge zipcord; the difference is insulation thickness — SPT2's jacket is thicker. Plugs are sized to the jacket, so SPT2 plugs pair only with SPT2 wire.

Where does each plug type go?

Male plugs go at the start of a run, at the power source. Plain female plugs go at the end of a run. Female inline pass-through plugs can be installed anywhere along the line to add a mid-run outlet.

Can I use SPT2 plugs on SPT1 wire?

No — the plug channels are sized for SPT2's thicker insulation and will not seat correctly on SPT1 wire. Use SPT1 plugs for SPT1 wire.

How do vampire plugs make a connection?

Closing the plug drives piercing pins through the zipcord insulation into the conductors — no stripping, twisting, or soldering. Slide, snap, done.

What colors do SPT2 plugs come in?

Green and white, so the plugs can blend with the wire color of your run.
