For a small gauge wires, (up to 1mm
2
), and when a mechanical attachment is required,
secure the 2 wire ends, by twisting them together. Align carefully the strands in order
to avoid any poke through of the sleeve. See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
In other cases, align wires in such a manner that all strands are parallel.
Then, slide the sleeve over the splice area and center the solder preform of the sleeve at the
center of the splice length.

2.
The splicing operation is made easier by using the recommended holding fixture
(AD-1319), keeping the wires aligned and the sleeve positioned during the termination.
3. Heat solder preform until it melts and forms a fillet between the conductors.
