The terminals are tinned to resist corrosion and made of pure copper for maximum current flow. The brazed seam provides maximum strength. They are UL listed and CSA recognized, ensuring high - quality standards. The heat shrink connectors have heat - activated adhesive in the tubing sleeve. When heated, they create a watertight seal, and offer excellent vibration and strain relief.

Using these Ancor heat shrink spade terminals is easy. First, make sure your wire is clean and stripped to the right length. Then insert the wire into the terminal. Use a heat gun to apply heat evenly to the heat shrink tubing. As the tubing heats up, the adhesive inside will melt and form a tight, watertight seal around the wire and terminal. Be careful when using the heat gun. Keep it moving to avoid overheating and damaging the terminal or the wire. Also, make sure you're in a well - ventilated area. For maintenance, check the connections regularly. If you notice any signs of corrosion or loosening, you may need to replace the terminal. Store the terminals in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
