How to determine the right splice for your application ?

If you want to convert an existing connection into a spliced connection, we advise you to send us :

• a dimensioned sketch of the a specimen of the existing connection.
• at least 20 to 50 components, as well as the wire used.
• indicate the ribbon material chosen and the width W required. (picture 1)

Crimping trials will enable the appropriate splice and tooling to be defined.

WE WILL RETURN YOUR SPECIMENS TO YOU CRIMPED, ACCOMPANIED BY OUR TEST RESULTS.

The width W of the splice measured according to the axis of the wire depends on the width of the crimping ribbon chosen. There are three standard widths : 2, 4 and 6 mm. (picture 2)

2 mm : electronics and low-current applications. general applications
4 mm : general applications
6 mm : power connections, high tensile strength

For your application, SM CONTACT can design and carry out special fitting, as well as the arrangement and presentation of the components.
The SM CRIMP 2000 can also be installed on automated productions lines.
