I’ve not ever been able to find an exhaustive list of all of the DuPont crimp tools and accompanying documentation. Some datasheets are available, but aren’t necessarily much help. There are many other HT-xxx tools in addition to what I’ve listed, all for sale on eBay in various quan...
If you are using an un-insulated crimp and need to sleeve it, put a suitable piece of sleeving onto the wire. Typically 3:1 shrink ratio, adhesive lined heat shrink would ensure that good support of both the wire and crimp is made. A length at least 2 times the crimp barrel will usu...
Use primary receptacles made of glass, metal, or plastic with a posi- tive means of ensuring a leakproof seal; a skirted stopper or metal crimp seal must be provided; screw caps must be reinforced with adhesive tape. For liquid specimens, the primary receptacle must not contain more than 1...
the grounds are connected together as well as being connected to the ground screw on the receptacle itself. Special crimp-on connectors are used by professionals to join multiple ground wires in the electrical box, but it is also permitted to use a twist-on connector (which takes more space)...
1. Likely single downtube crimp on each side (I think this was the early version of the Nuovo Mexico) 2. Flat-faced seat stay ends stamped Colnago. 3. Fully-chromed fork and rear triangle (up to the brake mount on the seat stays) ...
these assemblies are often the weak link in the chain, susceptible to a plethora of failure modes that can have ramifications on the overall system, causing not just functional disruptions but also safety hazards. These cable failures can impact end-products like medical devices, industrial equipment...
3Slide the compression sleeveonto the bare wire ends, and then crimp the sleeve with a multipurpose tool or the end of a wire cutter that’s made for crimping rather than cutting. Remember that the bare metal sleeve and the bare wires will conduct electricity! At the very least, wrap thi...
I do so many of these (especially for Ham Radio projects), that I got the 150 piece assortment with different sizes of connector pins. They all connect to each other; the difference is the size of wire that the crimp can hold. For smaller wires, even the 15 amp pins might be too la...
although other materials can be chosen to provide the desired performance. The final component is the cable shield, or housing of the connector. This is designed to terminate to the shield of the coax cable, by solder, crimp, or clamping. The shield is used primarily as a barrier to outsi...
Push the wires thoroughly into the RJ45 connector. Remember that the cable sleeve needs to go into the strain latch. This protects the smaller wires from breaking due to strain (the cable sleeve takes the load instead). The advantage of using a pass-through connector is clear: you can easil...
