Reliable electrical connections start with proper wire preparation. The CS-100 wire stripper from GLW is designed to deliver clean, consistent insulation stripping while protecting conductor integrity. Strip 28-8 AWG conductors with ease – you can set the stripping length as well as the pull back length – protecting wire stands until it’s time to terminate! …
Automating Ferrule Crimping for Larger Gauge Wires
As wire sizes increase, so do the challenges. Crimping ferrules on #12, #10, and #8 AWG conductors require more force, better alignment, and far less tolerance for error. This is where many manual tools and even some automated systems, begin to fall short. The MC40-L wire ferrule crimping machine, by GLW, is designed specifically to…
Why Wire Preparation Is Still the Weakest Link in the Control Panel
Control panels rarely fail because of the major components. More often, problems start at the connection point. Inconsistent stripping, damaged strands, and uneven crimps lead to loose terminations, troubleshooting headaches, and premature failures. Even the best terminal blocks and devices can’t compensate for poor wire preparation. That’s why standardized tools and kits matter. American Electrical’s…
