Another good splicing option.

I'm a big fan of the marine grade crimp+solder splices with the adhesive lined shrink tube, however I had a chance to use these dudes recently at work and they really performed. For areas where getting a crimping tool into play would be a problem, these are the shit..

Essentially a crimpless version of everybody's favorite splice. Just strip, slam, and heat. Good stuff.

Good find!

Any ideas as to price or do I have to request a quote?

If he has them at work I am sure he could share:confused2:

Am going to order up a kit this week. Be nice to redo my COP harness with those splices vs the ones I did to install. Much cleaner and it would appear they reduce the chances of a cold solder joint considerably.

I would really suggest resrting to these only where access prevents mechanical crimping. For my COP work which was out in the open, I used and advocate the kwikseal / permaseal connectors which are in essence the same splice with a standard internal Crimp as well. The ones I linked allow for more flexibility however, depends on your needs

quick correction, as these dudes always seem to be changing brand names, the current crop is "multilink" and "hydralink"

These are the type which include a crimp along with the adhesive lined shrink and low flow solder.
