Thermofix Pre-insulated Terminals

All terminals should be crimped onto the conductor using any quality crimper that is designed to crimp the specific terminal type. If unsure of the terminal/conductor/crimper combination refer to the technical information following and test the nominal pull out of the crimped connection. If the conductor does not pull out when the nominal pull out force is applied and held for one minute, this will give a good indication of the integrity of the joint. We offer a vast range of crimpers for various applications and terminal types that are shown in the tooling section at the back of this catalogue.

Below are some common tools for this range.

KTC1, KTC2, KTC3

Pre-Insulated Crimper, General purpose

YYT1

Pre-Insulated Crimper

HN2

Uninsulated Terminal Crimper

HF2

Brass Roll Crimper

Thermofix Single Conductor Bootlace Ferrules

Thermofix’s Bootlace Ferrules are used to terminate conductors, by containing the strands in a thin walled copper sleeve that is crimped onto the conductor. The sleeve stops screws in the terminal from breaking strands. With the use of larger diameter flexible cables, the range is continualy growing .The sleeves should be slipped over the stripped conductor, and crimped with one of our HNKE range of tools. Crimp is only to hold the sleeve on the conductor until the screw of the terminal housing makes connection.

                            There are three basic types of BLF: 1) Insulated single conductor style

                                                                                                           2) Twin conductor style

                                                                                                           3) Un-insulated cord end sleeves                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      .                                                                                             2) Twin conductor style                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          .                                                                                             3) Un-insulated cord end sleeves

Thermofix Twin Wire BLFT Bootlace Ferrules

The twin wire BLFT range is specifically designed to terminate two wires in the same terminal. With the development of smaller switches and devices, housing have become smaller. The twin wire BLFT solves these problems in a quick and easy way.

Thermofix Un-insulated Bootlace Pins-Cord End Connectors

Thermofix un-insulated bootlace pins are used to terminate conductors, by containing the strands in a thin walled copper sleeve. Crimping of the sleeves is optional, since the screw in the terminal will “crimp” the connection.
