Selection Guide
1 Measure maximum diameter (E)
and minimum diameter
(F) of combined cable and
ground lead.
2. Find appropriate Alpha
part number and sleeve size
in the cable and sleeve
dimensions chart.
Alpha’s FIT-SLV soldering sleeve
is a one piece, shield ground
termination system featuring a
strong, low-cost soldered
connection that is completely
insulated and encapsulated. It
consists of a heat-shrinkable
thermoplastic sleeve containing a
precisely engineered preform of
fluxed solder and thermoplastic
inserts at each end. When placed
over a cable shield and heated, the
solder melts and flows, connecting
the ground lead and shield. The
outer sleeve shrinks and the
thermoplastic inserts melt,
encapsulating the termination.
The result is a perfectly soldered,
strain-relieved and environmentally
protected termination.
A solder preform ensures exact
quantity of solder and flux,
producing optimum solder
connections for maximum strength
and lowest voltage drop.
Transparent heat-shrinkable
insulating sleeve allows inspection
of termination, and provides
long-life strain relief. Meltable
inserts insure complete
environmental protection.
