Cracking the Codes for Insulated Wire Ferrules
Insulated Wire Ferrules have so many different colors available, sometimes it’s confusing to navigate. There are three color codes that have been developed since the early 1970’s. The three codes available today are: DIN, W and T. In some cases, they have the same colors for the same wire sizes but in others, they are…
Wire Ferrules Make Solid Connections
Wire ferrules are small tin plated, copper sleeves that are crimped onto the ends of stranded wires, providing several benefits in electrical connections. Here’s why you should use them: Improved Connection Quality: When stranded wires are inserted directly into terminals or connectors, the strands can spread apart, leading to uneven contact and potential connection issues….
