The small ferrules have been developed by Nicopress® for Flints to provide an effective means of
securing a loop in our micro cables. They are made from solid copper. They can be easily compressed by using the tools above.
The combination of these economical tools and the micro ferrules solves the old problem concerning the termination of very small cables. Tests show that these terminations exceed the strength of the wire. They are ideal for invisible control and display wires.
Suits Wire (Metric): 0.75-0.9 mm
Suits Wire (Imperial): 1/32"
Finish: Copper
Sleeve Length Before: 6 mm
Sleeve Length After: 8 mm
Sleeve Shape: Oval
Use with Nicopress Tool: NIC17BA & NIC17B4B
Please Note: For the Nylon covered wires use a ferrule to suit the actual wire diameter. The nylon cover should be stripped back before compressing the ferrule. However, for non-lifting applications it is possible to make a termination with the nylon coating in place. For example, using ferrule NIC42815VB4 on the 1.05mm nylon covered wire with the nylon cover still in place we achieved results of around 20 kg before the wire slid out through the nylon coating . Although less strong with the nylon in place, they do make extremely smooth and neat assemblies which would be suitable for lightweight lanyards.
