Some Hints on Making Wrapped Connections
Do not press too hard. Let the OK tools
do the work. Excessive pressure can
lead to overwrapping. Backforce “BF”
to prevent overwrapping is available on
most power tools and is recommended
for use with 26 through 30 AWG wire.
Just keep the OK tool on the terminal
until the wrap is complete. Early
removal can result in spiral and open
wraps.
Feed Wire Correctly!
It’s easy to feed wire into the slot in
the OK bit correctly. Be sure the
stripped end of the wire is “pushed-in”
all the way.
Use the Correct Bit and
Sleeve!
Wire wrapping is a precision technique
and the wrong bit and sleeve just can-
not do the job. Improper selection can
cause problems ranging from “Pigtails”
to loose wraps.
