Introduction
SolderSleeve one-step terminators provide electrical termination in a wide variety of
interconnect applications. One-step terminator capabilities include terminating wires to
component terminals, ground wires to cable shields, terminating coaxial cable, and wire-to-
wire splicing.
A precisely engineered, fluxed solder preform within the heat-shrinkable thermoplastic sleeve
provides a completely soldered, strain-relieved, encapsulated termination. The one-piece
design of one-step terminators simplifies installation, while their transparent insulation sleeves
make inspection easy.

Termination Procedure
Follow installation instructions carefully. Use adequate ventilation and
avoid charring or burning during installation. Charring or burning the
product will produce fumes that may cause eye, skin, nose and throat
irritation. Consult Material Safety Data Sheets RAY5103 (for CWT products)
and RAY5104 (for B-155 products) for further information.
