Use and notes

General installation instructions

The ferrule is inserted into the eye during the creation of the splice. For a correct result, it is important that the eye:

• both is sized consistently with the ferrule;
• wraps the ferrule in a way uniform, avoiding twists or crushing points;
• is visually checked before commissioning, especially if the connection works dynamically.

Size selection

This item refers to size 6 mm. If you are considering other sizes of the same family, it is advisable to select the ferrule based on the cable size and the geometry of the eye you intend to create.
