This cable is linked to the following crimping sleeves. Anyone tried them? Loos Cableware SL1-2 50 Piece Sleeve Set for 1/16" Diameter Wire Rope

1/16" sleeves should be the proper size. You will have to strip off the vinyl coating where you make the connection. 3/16" sleeves will fit over the vinyl coating without stripping, but this should not be done if your project will have any significant loading since the vinyl will stretch and yield over time. Either way, you will probably also need a swaging tool to crimp the sleeves, as these are tough to crimp with anything else.

I believe this would, but a lot depends on the quality of the connectors you use. This crimpers, like others, depends on user skill level (stripping the correct amount of insulation etc.) and the quality of the connectors used (in my humble opinion). This crimper works great and the jaws have adjustment screws. On smaller gauge wire it is trickier, but again, it's all in the skill of the operator I think. I also find tinning the wire seems to help on smaller gauge wire too.

Hey Wareren, .. ok, I took a knife too one of my connectors; though it all looks like copper, I was however, able to cut a surface layer off identifying aluminum. Weight also doesn't line up with what would the weight of 25' of copper cables. I will note, they have worked fine for the occasional use that I had need of them. I still really like the quality connectors, all the rubber, and the carrying case is of better quality than I expected. Personally at this price point & again, for what I'm using them for, I would buy again. Note: Though these are called "commercial duty", I would not buy them for commercial use!

These are simply connectors. They need to be crimped on to whatever length cables you need. The proper crimping tool will set you back another 45 to 50 dollars, but is necessary for a trouble free, long lasting outcome. These connectors can handle up to 10 gauge wire.

The sleeve arrives in a coil so I think you should be able to coil it again with the cables in it but it depends on how tight you want the coils to be.

the cables DO NOT crimp on.......simple push in and out. your wire end (if like mine) the end piece pulls out so you can adapt and use the male / male adapters.....hope this made sense and good luck

No, its too wide, you cant only crimp the bare cable, itll grab the cover tabs. You need 1/4" wide yaws and these are 3/8" or 7/16" wide.

I would not put two cables together. Shop around. Spend good money on your cable or chain and get good clasps.

I do not know if it will work with other brands. Many of the crimping styles do similarly.

The crimper tightens to the right amount - not to tight not too loose. Wirecutters I imagine you would have to guess if you got it tight enough. Personally I wouldn't risk it - I mean you wouldn't want one of these connections to leak behind a wall or something.

There were 50 cable loos in the package I purchased. However I would imagine it would depend on size. I purchased the ones for 3/16 cable.

It would probably work fine with the existing crimp connector. To be sure, I might strip off a longer length of the 20ga, double it over and solder to make it fatter. However, be sure to not use a fuse higher rated than the capacity of your wire.

The wire size is not stamped or laser imprinted on the outside insulation jacket of the cable, my best guess is somwhere between18 Awg and 22Awg. If you need to know exact you might want to get in touch with blue rigger. I do know that 50 foot runs are awful long and you need to consider signal loss as a possible issue, if you do have signal loss try using a signal booster.Thanks

I bought the 50 foot roll and connected it to a LAVA antenna and to a 4 way splitter. The cable is well made and the connectors are easy to tighten. I am well satisfied with it. I don't see any issues with the 100 foot roll.

Re: TechFlex F6N0.50BK10 Flexo F6 General Purpose 1/2-inch Braided Cable Sleeve - Yes. Tried it, and it fit snugly around a 1/2" diameter drill bit. It is springy and can also be fit around diameters slightly larger than 1/2" perhaps up to 9/16" in diameter.

These cables are made of copper-coated aluminum wire. No question about it. What is worse, I think, is that the crimps in the clamp handles have no strain reliefs. Since aluminum does not handle repeated flexing, I would expect to see eventual failures at the crimps. I have no doubt this product will perform well with limited use, but I would not buy it if you expect to use it frequently.

I use these on quad shield cable all the time... Make sure you have the proper cable cutter/stripper tool, fold the braid over the cable and twist as you push on. They go on pretty easy with the cable I have... then I use a cheap $20 compression crimper to crimp them.
