Carbon Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Posted January 22, 2013 I love my Rotary Stripper! I need to get those terminals and slugs asap!
SnowDrifter Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 I just crimp those connectors. Stick the wire in, pump the handle a couple times, heat shrink.

Born_Again Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Beautiful. I'm going to have to do this.
8ight Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 I do just this with some regular rosin-core cut up and dropped in a 1/0 lug. Works a treat. I'm gonna hate
Hotdog Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 I used them solder pellets on a lot of my 1/0 connections. It really does work great.

SnowDrifter Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Hammer crimp ≠ hydraulic crimper I'd just prefer soldering over that With using a crimper: you need to use the closed ended copper terminals. The "beefy" ones. The cheap open ended brass ones don't seem to cold-weld properly with the wire - those do best with soldering IMO http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hydraulic-Crimping-Tool-Kit-8-Ton-Electric-Wire-Crimper-/230847642864 or http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hydraulic-Crimping-Tool-Kit-16-Ton-Wire-Cable-Crimper-/330554371671?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item4cf6936e57 ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
Carbon Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Posted January 22, 2013 I do just this with some regular rosin-core cut up and dropped in a 1/0 lug. Works a treat. Would silver solder work for this method?

Can't say, I'm not sure what that's for. I don't solder anything so I keep a spool of Radio-Shack solder for when I need to and it serves me well enough. I'm gonna hate
