sealed multiple Wire connectors
Installation Instructions
Sealed Multiple Wire In-Line Butt Connector Instructions:
- For side of connector where two wires will be inserted, strip wires 5/8”.
- Select a connector that matches the wire gauge (chart below), twist wire strands and insert the two wires into the larger side of the connector.
Make sure both wires are properly seated and crimp the connector using an insulated connector crimping tool nest that matches the color stripe
on the larger side of the connector barrel. - For the side of the connector where one wire will be inserted, strip wire 5/16”. Insert the wire into the smaller side of the connector, make sure the wire is properly seated and crimp the connector using an insulated connector crimping tool nest that matches the color stripe on the smaller side of the connector barrel.
- Apply heat evenly around the length of the tubing (including the crimp area) from the center out to the ends until the tubing fully recovers and the adhesive flows. During the heating process, separate the two wires in the larger end of the connector to allow the adhesive to flow in between the wires. Remove from the heat and let cool.
Sealed Multiple Wire Closed-End Connector Instructions:
- Using the chart, select the proper size of connector for the wires to be joined. A maximum of four wires may be connected.
- Strip each wire 5/8”. Insert all wires into the connector, make sure that each wire is properly seated and crimp the connector using an insulated connector crimping nest that matches the color dash on the heat shrink tubing.
- Apply heat evenly to the tubing until the tubing fully recovers and the adhesive flows. DO NOT heat the crimp area since this will burn the plastic portion of the connector. During the heating process, separate the wires to allow the adhesive to flow in between the wires. Remove from the heat and let cool.
For best results, use a heat device of at the least 1000° F. When using an open flame, do not isolate the flame on one area of tubing. Distribute the heat evenly. Overheating the connector may cause damage to the tubing. Rating: 221° F / 105° C • 600V maximum building wire • 1000V maximum in signs and fixtures.
