Tyco electronics unveils sealed splices for high-temperature applications

D-200 MiniSeal Crimp Splices from Tyco Electronics are ideal for aerospace and defense applications where performance, reliability, or size reduction is essential.

With a temperature rating of 200°C, the splice combines a nickel-plated copper crimp barrel with a separate, heat-shrinkable, transparent sealing sleeve that provides strain relief and environmental protection. These splices preserve electrical integrity by preventing the penetration of liquids and the resulting chemical and galvanic corrosion and potential short circuits.

D-200 MiniSeal crimp splices offer the following significant advantages over alternative methods:

Reliability

Excellent long-term performance

Environment-resistant sealing

SAE-AS81824/1 (modified for 200˚C applications) qualification

D-200 MiniSeal splices are available for a wire range from 26 AWG to 12 AWG and can be used to seal and protect high temperature rated wires with Teflon insulation such as RCW and BMS13-60 nickel-plated wires. Termination is with standard AD-1377 crimp tool.
