Shrink tube fitting to wire joints or cable ends

Have you ever wondered just how a pro cable joining job got to look that way?


This is the tool you will need, not a lot is it.


 Once the cable end eye has been securely crimped on to the cable, you then slide a short length of shrink tube over the joint. In this case I used a stove burner, you may want to use a heat gun, or on small jobs a burning match (be carefull)




The finished job, it looks good and it will go a long way to keeping moisture out of the cable joint. Use the same shrink tube method when soldering cables end to end. Shrink tube comes in various diameters.

How hard can this be?
