ProTek R/C 3mm EZ Solder Sleeves are heat-shrinkable solder-type butt connectors designed to make splicing 22 to 18awg wires simple and effective. Compatible with both surface and air applications, as well as a variety of other uses, these solder sleeves provide a reliable alternative to soldering, crimping, and conventional twist-on-style closed-end connectors.
The tubes feature a prefluxed solder ring that helps you achieve an effective low resistance connection, while the adhesive rings help to create a secure, waterproof seal on the wire. Plus, the transparent heat shrink allows you to inspect the connection, remains flexible for strain relief and insulates the junction. Package includes five sleeves.
Features:
Easy to use: With a very simple design these solder sleeves are easy to use, and allow a single step soldered, sealed and insulated connection. Install with a heat gun, torch or lighter. Clear sleeve allows precise wire positioning for an effective connection.
Effective: These solder sleeves perform well in almost every situation where soldering is needed. Extending battery wires, motor wires, and more.
Durable: Materials offer a high quality solder connection with no measurable resistance, and the heat shrink material remains flexible and allows inspection of the junction.
Waterproof: Each sleeve includes waterproofing adhesive. Once melted the wire becomes waterproof.
Sometimes they work well, other times NOT. The smaller ones work better. By the time the solder ring melts, the clear tube burns up!
I've used a heat gun, and a small propane torch to heat them. Need improvements!
