Heat Shrink Terminals, Connectors
and Disconnects
3M Heat Shrink pre-insulated terminals, connectors
and disconnects protect against the most challenging
of environments, making the best moisture protection
available. They offer several advantages over conventional
unsealed products.
material, when properly crimped and shrunk, provides a seal
that is resistant to water, salt, steam and other related
contaminants.
lined heat shrink tubing adheres, when shrunk, to both the
connector and the wire insulation, providing improved
pullout strength and strain relief.
Installation Procedure
Funnel Barrel Feature provides an excellent electrical
and mechanical connection.
• Funnel design guides wire into position.
• No wire strand hang-up as the wire is inserted, giving
• Wire is in place, ready for crimping.
For maximum crimping performance, barrel of connector
must be properly indexed in the crimp tool station.

splices and disconnects are available in wire sizes 22–10
AWG, and can be installed easily with a recommended tool
and heat source. The connectors are color-coded for wire
range identification, and the transparent tubing allows for
visual inspection.
High Temperature Terminals
and Connectors
3M high temperature terminals and connectors are
constructed of steel with a nickel plating. Their temperature
rating for continuous use at 900°F (482°C) makes them
perfect for use in ovens, motors, light fixtures and other
applications where other connectors would corrode or melt.
temperature steel parts.
Application Procedure for
Heat Shrink Products:
1. Strip wires to appropriate
length as indicated on package
label.
2. Insert wire into terminal
and crimp with correct
station of a recommended tool.
3. Apply heat with a
recommended heat source.
Standard Crimp Terminal
and Connector Specifications
Materials
Crimp terminals and connectors are to be burr-free, annealed
and bright-tin plated ETP copper. Barrels shall be 0.25" long
with brazed seams where specified. Insulation grip sleeves
are to be tin-plated brass and attached securely to the barrel.
Terminal insulators are to be molded polyvinyl chloride or
nylon, UL Listed and CSA Certified for 600V in building
wire and 1,000V in signs and lighting fixtures (luminaries).
Connector insulators are to be extruded polyvinyl chloride
or nylon with a temperature rating of 221°F (105°C).
Construction
All insulated terminals are to have funnel entry construction
to prevent strand hang-up and a crimp ridge for proper tool
location. Nylon insulated terminals and connectors are to
have butted seam barrels with insulation grip sleeves. All
terminal barrels are to have multiple “V” grooves for
maximum conductor retention.
