Details

Medium, 1.6 mm internal Ø. 50/pack.

Use this size crimp to make terminations in 0.75 mm Ø x 7 strand wire, ref. W075. Also used to make mainsail luff slides at intervals along the luff where the sail will be attached to a GROOVY mast.

After passing the wire through the crimp to form the size of loop that you require, use a pair of end cutters to make a series of indents along the crimp. The indents should be deep enough to flatten the crimp onto the wire but not so deep as to start cutting the crimp itself. Make the termination neat, snag free and safe by adding a short lengths of shrink fit tube ref. SFIT-016 & SFIT-035 over the crimp and cut ends of wire.

Also useful as an emergency connector for electrical cables instead of using solder. Ensure the crimp is covered with shrink fit tube, deck patch material or other insulation material afterwards. Thanks go to John Shorrock for this suggestion.

Available in bulk packs if required in larger quantities.
