3:1 12mm heat shrink for 0 gauge welding cable?

Recommended Posts

I always like to go over the terminal, just creates a cleaner look!

Yeah that's what I meant, trying to figure out what size I need to fit over the terminal..

Well, the biggest part you'll have to go over is the terminal.. so measure the widest part of the terminal. I'm guessing 12mm isn't going to be enough (12mm is less than half an inch) the 3:1 is measured at the starting size.. so 12mm would go from 12mm to ~4mm.. you don't need that small.. I'd probably get the 18mm or something along that lines.. even the 24 (I think that's the bigger size.. something around there) would shrink down to about 3/8ths of an inch when heated.

A couple of days late but you can also precut the length you need and feed it on the wire BEFORE you solder your connection. that way you wont have to worry about going over the terminal.
