THE MAINTENANCE CONNECTION, INC. Shrink Terminals
Solder & Seal Terminals Solder & Seal Terminals are radically different from other connectors on the market today. In a simple, one-step process, Solder & Seal terminals produce an electrically and environmentally sound connection. The soldering process insures that the resistance, voltage drop, and tensile strength of Solder & Seal terminals will exceed all current standards for wire connector performance. The tough, heat shrinkable tubing has an adhesive lining which provides a complete environmental seal to prevent corrosion and reduce vibration. Soldering and sealing in one step saves installation time while providing the perfect connection.
Standard Color Coding Indicates Wire Sizes for Easy Identification Clear Tubing Allows Visual Inspection
Inner Wall Melts to Create an Environment Seal When Heated Solder Link Provides Maximum Current Flow
Heavy Duty Tubing Provides Additional Strain Relief
Design Features • Fluxed solder ring melts & flows when heated to strengthen the connection, maximize current flow and minimize resistance. • Tough, multiple wall tubing shrinks when heated and delivers above average vibration and tensile strength (700 psi vs 40 psi for a standard nylon splice) which reduces failure due to pull-out under stress. • Adhesive lined sleeve melts when heated to create an environmentally sealed connection which reduces failure due to moisture, corrosion, and vibration. • Industry standard color-coded sleeve for quick identification saves time and eliminates costly errors. • No expensive crimp tools required - means perfect connections anywhere.

Installation 1. Strip wires to 3/8". 2. Insert wire into the solder barrel of the solder & shrink terminal. 3. Heat tubing from center out to ends then focus heat on solder until it flows. 4. Remove from heat and let cool for a perfect connection. Product Characteristics Temperature rating -65°to 275°F Dielectric Strength 15kV Voltage Drop Less than equal length of wire
