14.0  Install Lug or Connector

14.1  Check to insure the 3M

 Cold Shrink QT–III Silicone Rubber Termination assembly fits over the selected lug 

or connector. If lug or connector (

Figure 23

) will not fit through the termination core, clean the insulation (

per 

Step 15.0

) and slide termination on cable before installing lug or connector. 

DO NOT REMOVE CORE AT 

THIS TIME.

Connector/Lug

Figure 23

NOTE: Refer to pages 18 – 20 for 3M Connector and Lug crimping information.

14.2  Position connector or lug and crimp according to manufacturer's directions. Remove excess oxide inhibitor and 

sharp crimp flashings following crimping.

15.0  Clean Cable Insulation and Lug or Connector Barrel Using Standard Practice

15.1  Wipe the cable insulation with one of the solvent saturated pads from the 3M

 Cable Cleaning Preparation Kit 

CC–2. 

DO NOT ALLOW SOLVENT TO TOUCH SEMI-CON INSULATION SHIELD!

15.2  If abrasive must be used: 

a. Use on insulation only. 

DO NOT USE ABRASIVE ON SEMI-CON INSULATION SHIELD!

 

b. Use only aluminum oxide abrasive; grit 120 or finer, included in 3M

 Cable Cleaning Preparation Kit CC-2. 

c. Be careful not to reduce the cable insulation diameter below that allowed by the kit.

16.0  Install Termination

                                                           Important Packaging Notice

In order to make sure that you receive an undamaged termination, this 3M™ Cold Shrink QT-III Termination is packed 

with a RED SHIPPING CORE inside of the white core. Please remove the red shipping core BEFORE you install the ter-

mination. This shipping core can be recycled with other polypropylene waste.

16.1  Slide the termination body onto the cable and remove core. Pull while unwinding, counter-clockwise, starting 

with the loose end (

Figure 24

). Make sure the termination body (not the core) is butted up to the edge of the 

vinyl tape marker previously applied (

Figure 24

).

NOTE: Once the termination body makes contact over the mastic seal area, there is no need to continue 

supporting the assembly. DO NOT PUSH OR PULL ON THE TERMINATION ASSEMBLY WHILE 

UNWINDING THE CORE.

Vinyl Tape Marker

Counter-Clockwise

The material being removed at this step is mixed polymers
and can be recycled with            waste.

NOTE:
