Overview
|
Oval shaped copper sleeves used in making eye or lap splices in flexible cable. Sleeves are slipped over the two strands of cable to be fastened and are then compressed with special Nicropress hand squeezers. Provides a bond that is even stronger than a standard splice. Plain copper and zinc coated sleeves are used with galvanized cable, and tin coated sleeves are to be used with stainless steel cable.

The 3/16 sleeves I used worked well. The 3/16 thimble was smaller (tighter radius) than I expected, found a larger one at a hardware store my my application.
Q&A
Tin coated sleeves are used with stainless steel cable.
We have several installation tools to choose from. They are on page 775 of the 2013-2014 catalog. 12-12000, 12-12100, 12-12200, 12-12400, 12-00222, 12-02560, and 12-02561 are examples (see accessories). Verify the size tool will work with the sleeve to be used.
The proper cable sleeve swaging procedures are explained and illustrated in the FAA 43.13 acceptable, methods and practices publication.
See part # 04-01634
You would use zinc or tinned sleeves on stainless cables to avoid some corrosion issues.
