SolderSleeve One-Step Wire and Cable Terminators 

Installation Procedures for CWT and B-155 Products

 

 

1.0

 

Introduction

 

SolderSleeve one-step terminators provide electrical termination in a wide variety of 
interconnect applications.  One-step terminator capabilities include terminating wires to 
component terminals, ground wires to cable shields, terminating coaxial cable, and wire-to-
wire splicing. 
 
A precisely engineered, fluxed solder preform within the heat-shrinkable thermoplastic sleeve 
provides a completely soldered, strain-relieved, encapsulated termination.  The one-piece 
design of one-step terminators simplifies installation, while their transparent insulation sleeves 
make inspection easy.

Part Selection, According to Application 

Select correct part number from the SolderSleeve One-Step Wire and Cable Terminators 
Selection Guide (H54335) or consult the technical data sheet (or Specification Control 
Drawing) of the product (shield terminations, wire-to-wire splices, wire to component 
terminals or for coax terminators).

Procedure 

 

 

WARNING 

 

    

 

Follow installation instructions carefully. Use adequate ventilation and  

 

  

avoid charring or burning during installation.  Charring or burning the 

 

product will produce fumes that may cause eye, skin, nose and throat 

 

irritation.  Consult Material Safety Data Sheets RAY5103 (for CWT products)  

 

and RAY5104 (for B-155 products) for further information.
