Terminals and Splices
SolderSleeve ®
Wire to Wire Splicing
Single Piece Solder Splice

1 SolderSleeve splicing devices which can be
used to make sealed or unsealed splices in a
single step they solder, insulate, encapsulate
2 and strain relieve a wide range of wire sizes.

Features & Benefits
3 • Transparent PVDF (D-1744 Series) or
Polyolefin (B-155 & CWT Series) sleeve
provides encapsulation, inspectability,
4
strain relief and insulation solution.
• Pre-fluxed solder preform provides a
controlled soldering process.
5
• One piece design makes installation easy
and lowers the installed cost.
6 • Thermo-chromic temperature indicator in Specifications & Approvals
the D1744 splices facilitates termination • CWT: UL E87681 and D-5023
and inspection. • D-1744: NAS-1744 and RT-1404

Notes:
• While all combinations listed will provide satisfactory solder joints, the degree of strain relief
16 obtained depends on the outer diameter of the wires being joined. Refer to Table D for the
recommended size ranges for the sleeves.
2
• Wires 16 AWG (1.2mm ) and larger, having more than 19 strands should be pre-tinned prior to
17 splicing, to obtain the optimum solder joint quality.

• Part selection for wires 26 AWG (0.15mm ) and smaller are also available, please contact us for
further information or discuss particular needs.

the correct reflector. See Application Equipment Section.
