Need a Matching Waterproof COB LED Strip?
These two MALIIGAZA waterproof COB LED strips are suitable companion products for this connector series. Please select the connector according to the PCB width, not the total silicone-covered strip width.
12V / 24V IP68 Waterproof COB LED Strip
Low-voltage waterproof COB LED strip for indoor and outdoor lighting projects. Use the 8mm connector option from this listing.
View 12V / 24V IP68 COB LED StripAC 110V / 220-230V High-Voltage Waterproof COB LED Strip
High-voltage waterproof COB LED strip for longer lighting runs. Use the 10mm connector option from this listing.
View High-Voltage Waterproof COB LED StripHigh-voltage safety: Always disconnect mains power before cutting or connecting AC LED strips. High-voltage installations should be completed by a qualified person in accordance with local electrical regulations.
Please Choose the Connector by PCB Width
8mm connector: For a COB strip with an 8mm PCB. After the waterproof silicone sleeve is added, the complete strip may measure approximately 10mm wide. You still need the 8mm connector.
10mm connector: For a COB strip with a 10mm PCB. After the waterproof silicone sleeve is added, the complete strip may measure approximately 12-12.5mm wide. You still need the 10mm connector.
Do not choose the connector according to the total outer width of the waterproof silicone sleeve.
Why Choose MALIIGAZA Waterproof COB Connectors?
Solderless Fast Installation
No conventional soldering is required. Insert the correctly cut COB strip, align the contacts and firmly close the connector for a fast electrical connection.
Flame-Retardant Material
Made with quality flame-retardant materials for safer LED lighting connections and improved durability during long-term use.
IP67 Waterproof Design
Designed for IP67 waterproof COB lighting installations. For maximum sealing performance, add suitable waterproof silicone or sealant inside the connector before inserting and locking the strip.
Low-Voltage & High-Voltage Applications
Quality connector materials and contact construction allow the series to be used with compatible low-voltage and high-voltage 2-pin COB LED strips when the correct connector size is selected.
Designed for Reliable COB LED Strip Connections
For Maximum Waterproof Performance
Before inserting the COB strip, apply a suitable waterproof silicone or sealing adhesive inside the connector. Insert the strip, make sure the contacts reach the copper pads, then fully close the connector. Correct sealing can further improve waterproof performance and help achieve a higher level of water protection.
Typical Applications
Outdoor COB Lighting
Patio & Landscape Lighting

Quick Installation Guide
- Confirm the PCB Width: Make sure you purchased the 8mm connector for an 8mm PCB or the 10mm connector for a 10mm PCB.
- Cut at the Correct Position: Cut the COB LED strip only at its designated cutting mark.
- Check Polarity: Confirm that positive (+) connects to positive (+) and negative (-) connects to negative (-).
- Add Sealant if Required: For stronger waterproof sealing, apply a suitable waterproof silicone or adhesive inside the connector before inserting the strip.
- Insert the COB Strip: Push the strip fully into the connector and align the copper pads with the connector contacts.
- Lock the Connector: Close the connector firmly and make sure the piercing contacts pass through or make solid contact with the strip's copper pads.
- Test Before Final Installation: Restore power only after the connection is completed and verify that the LED strip operates correctly.
Troubleshooting
The LED strip does not turn on:
Check polarity first. Make sure the connector contacts have pierced or firmly reached the copper pads of the COB strip.
The connection works intermittently or flickers:
Open the connector, reposition the strip and make sure the contact pins are aligned correctly with the copper pads before closing it again.
The connector does not fit the strip:
Check the bare PCB width rather than the total silicone-covered strip width. A waterproof strip that measures approximately 10mm externally may still use an 8mm PCB and therefore requires an 8mm connector.
IMPORTANT SIZING & SAFETY INFORMATION
- Connector size refers to PCB width: An 8mm PCB waterproof strip may measure approximately 10mm externally after the silicone sleeve is added, but it still requires an 8mm connector. A 10mm PCB strip may measure approximately 12-12.5mm externally but still requires a 10mm connector.
- COB LED strips only: This connector series is designed for compatible COB LED strips and is not intended for standard SMD LED strips.
- Check polarity: Connect positive to positive and negative to negative. Incorrect polarity may prevent the strip from lighting.
- Cut only at designated cut marks: Cutting in the wrong position can damage the LED strip circuit.
- Make sure the contacts reach the copper pads: The connection will not conduct properly if the piercing contacts do not penetrate or firmly contact the conductive pad area.
- Add waterproof sealant for enhanced protection: Applying suitable waterproof silicone inside the connector before installation can significantly improve sealing performance.
- High-voltage installations: Disconnect mains power before installation. Use only properly matched components and have high-voltage electrical work completed by a qualified person where required.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I select the correct connector size?
Choose according to the internal PCB width of the COB strip, not the total external width including the waterproof silicone sleeve. An 8mm PCB requires an 8mm connector and a 10mm PCB requires a 10mm connector.
My waterproof strip is about 10mm wide. Which connector should I choose?
If the internal PCB is 8mm and the complete strip becomes approximately 10mm wide only because of its waterproof silicone sleeve, select the 8mm connector.
What if my waterproof strip measures about 12-12.5mm externally?
If the internal PCB itself is 10mm wide, select the 10mm connector even though the waterproof outer sleeve makes the complete strip approximately 12-12.5mm wide.
Can I use these connectors with SMD LED strips?
No. This connector series is designed for compatible COB LED strips. Please verify your LED strip structure and PCB width before ordering.
Do I need to solder the COB LED strip?
No conventional soldering is required. Correctly position the COB strip inside the connector and make sure the piercing contacts reach the copper pads.
How can I improve the waterproof seal?
Apply a suitable waterproof silicone or sealing adhesive inside the connector before inserting the LED strip, then fully close the connector. Correct installation and sealing are important for maximum waterproof performance.
Why does the LED strip not light after connecting it?
First check that positive and negative polarity are matched correctly. Then check whether the piercing contacts have properly reached the LED strip copper pads.
Can these connectors be used with high-voltage COB LED strips?
Yes, compatible versions can be used with high-voltage COB LED strip applications when the connector width and strip specifications match. Always disconnect mains power before installation and follow appropriate electrical safety requirements.
Which connector should I use with the MALIIGAZA 12V / 24V IP68 waterproof COB strip?
Use the 8mm connector option. You can view the matching strip here: 12V / 24V IP68 Waterproof COB LED Strip.
Which connector should I use with the MALIIGAZA high-voltage waterproof COB strip?
Use the 10mm connector option for the matching high-voltage strip: AC 110V / 220-230V Waterproof COB LED Strip.
Choose the Correct Connector for Your COB LED Strip
Check your COB strip PCB width first, select the correct 8mm or 10mm connector type, and create a fast, clean and waterproof lighting connection without conventional soldering.
