TE Connectivity’s (TE) dependable, economical wire and cable termination products provide solutions for hundreds of wire and cable interconnect requirements. All wire termination products are housed inside transparent heat-shrinkable insulation sleeves, which provide inspectability and can provide various levels of environmental protection. Most Raychem brand termination products incorporate a fluxed solder preform, which is essential for a highly controlled soldering process. Other products incorporate controlled crimping or a unique process of combining a twist-on coil with controlled soldering to provide high-reliability joints on the widest variety of conductor types and platings. SolderSleeve technology ensures high-quality electrical and mechanical performance time after time. Premeasured solder and flux create repeatable, reliable terminations, reducing rejects and field failures. When the SolderSleeve device is heated, the tubing shrinks and the solder preform melts to make a fully insulated, strain-relieved, protected solder connection. Heatshrinkable tubing provides the benefits of insulation, strain relief, and protection for our controlled crimp products. Many Raychem brand interconnect products have earned UL recognition or SAE AS83159 Mil-Spec approval. Many SolderSleeve and related devices are made from polyvinylidene fluoride tubings that meet the requirements of AMS-DTL-23053/8 (formerly MIL-DTL-23053/8). Raychem brand interconnect devices combine high-strength materials with innovative design for consistent, long-life performance. And because the insulation sleeve is transparent, operators can easily inspect the connection. TE shrink-to-fit technology even helps reduce inventory, because one device size will fit a wide range of wire gauges, cable diameters, and component shapes. TE interconnect products are designed for many applications, from simple splices to terminators for sophisticated electronic systems, either sealed or unsealed, and for high- or lowtemperature environments.
