The yellow 6mm tinned heat-shrink splice from Würth is essential for making durable and watertight electrical connections in onboard circuits. The tin coating improves corrosion resistance, while the heat-shrink insulation protects the connection from moisture and vibrations, critical factors in nautical environments.
Technical Characteristics
- Type: Inline splice for electrical wiring
- Material: Tinned copper
- Insulation: Yellow heat-shrink (for 6mm cables)
- Application: Joining equal cable sections
- Würth Reference: 5559233
Advantages
- The tinned surface delays oxidation and ensures constant conductivity for longer.
- The heat-shrink covering seals the joint against water, dust, and corrosive substances.
- Easy to install: insert cables, crimp, and apply heat with a heat gun.
Main Applications
- Quick or long-lasting repairs in marine electrical circuits.
- Joining cables for lighting, pumping systems, onboard electronics, etc.
Maintenance Tips
- Verify that the cable section matches the splice.
- Check heat seal visually after heating: it must wrap the cable with no gaps.
