Usage Instructions

To ensure optimal performance, follow these steps when installing the heat shrink ring terminals:

  1. Strip the wire to the appropriate length as specified.
  2. Insert the stripped wire into the ring terminal and secure it with a crimp tool, ensuring a tight connection.
  3. Slide the heat shrink tubing over the crimped terminal.
  4. Apply heat evenly using a heat gun until the tubing shrinks to one-third of its original size, forming a secure, waterproof seal.
  5. Allow the terminal to cool before handling to ensure the adhesive has fully bonded.
