FAQs

What type of wire gauge is compatible with these connectors?

These connectors are compatible with 0.25mm² - 0.34mm² wires.

What is the recommended method for applying heat?

A heat gun is the recommended tool. Ensure you apply heat evenly until the solder melts and the sleeve shrinks.

Can these connectors be used outdoors?

Yes, the heat shrink sleeve provides good protection against moisture and environmental factors, making them suitable for outdoor use.

How do I store these connectors?

Store the connectors in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

What should I do if the solder doesn't melt?

Make sure you're using a sufficient heat source and that it's applied correctly. The solder melts at a specific temperature, so adequate heat is essential.
