High quality, heat shrink butt crimp connector for standard automotive/marine cable that provides permanent joining of cables using a single connector. Once crimped, simply heat the connector with a heat gun to shrink the sleeving over the cable and allow the adhesive to flow. This provides a water resistant seal around the cable entry points so is particularly suited for use in situations where the connection is exposed to moisture (e.g. underside of a vehicle, engine bay, etc.).
The internal adhesive of the heatshrink terminals bonds securely to both the terminal and cable. The combination of crimping, heatshrink, and adhesive creates a level of strain relief not achievable with standard terminal types.
Product Features:
- Transparent heat-shrinkable high-density polyolefin
- Conveniently color-coded
- Adhesive lined
- Sold in packs of 10
Instructions:
- Select the correct size terminal for your application and crimp as per standard terminals.
- Apply heat. The terminal insulation not only shrinks firmly around the cable but also releases an adhesive to increase the strain relief and creates a waterproof seal.
Note: Avoid localized overheating of the heat-shrink tubing.
