Can I use blowdryer
Unfortunately, you cannot. It looks like the majority of blowdryers reach between 80°F-140°F. Heat shrink, on average, needs to be heated to about 200°F.
This is the stupidest video I've ever seen. Literally a video about crimping without showing the crimping. What's wrong with you?
Thank you 🙌
And then there’s me over here, wondering why his connections don’t work. Turns out that I was using connectors one size 2 large so I could fit the insulation as well as the wire into the barrel. Go figure
I came here to see the crimping!
Can I use a busbar for powering multiple car audio amplifiers
Great video! Simple, to the point; yes, you could have shown the crimping, which would have been better, but as a whole, very informative.
Ridiculous video.
If i dont have a crimper, what else can I use?
A brick
im wondering, would it be ok to solder the wires inside the terminals, if one doesn't have an appropriate crimping tool? and im not talking any soldering job, silvery and smooth atleast.
I just burn it and rip it off.
Lol ye works maybe not the best way because could burn the wire alil and have a shotty connection but i do that too on stuff that isnt really important.
I absolutely love this video. It was so much more helpful then any of the others I've tried to watch on using the fork terminals, many from 8 to 12 minutes long and completely worthless. THANK YOU, great information in a short amount of time, beautiful.
hi how durable is the black coating what is it ?
You did not show the heating You didn’t show what you’re doing for the heat
Do both ends of the wires need to touch eachother inside the butt connector? Or just the metal contact
Great question. The stripped wires need to fully butt up against the interior bend. If you take the video to 0:09, you will see an angle of the splice showing the inside. You can easily see the bend your wires should be touching.
Do not use a heat gun as shown here against a table or bench. Bad practice and also terribly uneven heating of the heatshrink.
Perform tug test after crimping but before shrinking the heatshrink. You want to test the crimp itself. Also, do not use the heatgun as shown against a table. Hold the terminal up and apply heat evenly around the terminal or with a deflector, away from other objects.
You should not butt the insulation up to the terminal. There should be a small gap for inspection/verification purposes.
I have 2 12 AWG wires and like to know how to splice say two 12 gauge or AWG wires into 1 12 gauge AWG wire? As well as protect to and seal it via heat shrink it or plastic dip it or both or electrical tape it? Or for speakers
Great question, you could consider a step-down butt splice similar to the one at this link (www.pacergroup.net/step-down-tinned-butt-splice/) although you would need to be sure to use epoxy-lined heat shrink to ensure the connection point is protected.
Di these not ever need insulating?
What type/brand of crimper do you suggest for a 12/10 to 8 gauge seamless tinned copper butt splice connector? I only have 2 of these connectors to crimp. Thanks!
Our ratchet-controlled crimper is ideal for the applications you have described. YOu can find it at www.pacergroup.net/controlled-ratchet-crimper-for-heat-shrink-22-8-awg/.
Does this crimper work equally well with un-insulated terminals. I will be using heat shrink tubing after crimping
@@Dave-jc6ky Unfortunately, it is not recommended for use with un-insulated terminals. We do offer a tool with changeable die sets. You can see the tool at www.pacergroup.net/ideal-crimp-tool-frame-w-o-die-set/. The die set you would want to use would be www.pacergroup.net/ideal-die-set-for-non-insulated-terminals-22-8awg/.
What type of crimper do you suggest for an 8 gauge butt splice connector. This one is tinned copper, seamless. Thanks!
This tool is ideal for use on 8 AWG applications. It works with bare terminals as well as heat-shrink-insulated terminals. www.pacergroup.net/controlled-ratchet-crimper-for-heat-shrink-22-8-awg/
This tool is not for uninsulated terminals. That is solely for heatshrink terminals.
The only reason to click through on a 2c wire stripping guide is to see how to get the jacket off. You skipped that.
Thank you for the feedback. We will add that section as we revisit these videos.
Any videos/help on topic of how big a ring terminal can I use with 18/so/22 gauge wires? I have a 1/4" grounding bolt that I want to attach a wire to but I have the small wire/big ring connector problem. Thanks
This product will work perfectly for you. www.pacergroup.net/ring-terminals-for-22-awg-18-awg-wire/ All you need to do is select the insulation type, stud size (1/4"), and package size. Then you'll be set.
I mean most people just use a bunch of jumpers for tbs
how to wire a new fuse block in a vehicle
Do you heat it up with a lighter?
Heat gun
So what are bus bar used for?
Bus bar can have the single mains power coming into it. With multiple ccts coming of it. As opposed to solder multiple wires to the one main wire.
Ahh... got it. So you could do the same for both the positive and earth.
For parallel connection.
best short and to the point, very much appreciated
Do you NOT have the proper tool for slicing/stripping the outer sheathing?
Wtf you didn’t show removal of the outer sheathing! Worthless!
thankyou!!!!
Does pacer make a crimp tool for heat shrink terminals?
We offer a range of crimping tools including this one www.pacergroup.net/controlled-ratchet-crimper-for-heat-shrink-22-8-awg/
Great video! Used it successfully immediately after seeing your video. Thanks
smart thing also was to show what crimper did he use
Moving forward we will add the tools in operation to the videos to make it easier. The one used in this video is the VTTR-50. www.pacergroup.net/controlled-ratchet-crimper-for-heat-shrink-22-8-awg/
Wrong tool for this application.
**Not for use on Non-Insulated/Bare terminals.** This is from the tool link provided.
Compact wire stripper (20-8 AWG) VT45-124 -- writing this here so I can look it up I need to strip the end of speaker wire that has a tiny diameter. The speaker wire in this video isn't that tough to cut.
Any wire smaller than 10 awg is a breeze to cut with the VT45-124.
what is the product no. of pacer group?
Excellent.
How do I put it on?
Please 10 seconds more Showing application Thanks
Never showed proper tool for crimping which was my main objective to watching.
Forreal me too 😂
Great info! It took me a while to find this on google, I kept getting distracted with other butt videos.
And never twist the wires for Crimping,it will breake some wires and the Crimping will not be solid. Research it if you don't belive it.
Solid point. Thank you for the information. We will definitely incorporate into future videos.
Could you please include a brief, common application example with your vids?
I have a 16 gauge wire and need to connect it to 2 16 gauge wires, does anyone know what do I need?
What's the country of origin?
What is the country of origin?
All Pacer-manufactured products are made in the United States.
How is this used pix?
Great suggestion. Here is a video where we show how to use them. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ioWI1byup8rKlZs.html
Show 1 in use?
seems like the metal connector would be energized delete video ban creator
