Superior Performance in Terminating Wire or Irregular Shaped Conductors
Our SOLISTRAND products are designed for reliable performance in harsh environments. SOLISTRAND terminals and splices are specifically engineered to ensure reliable and long lasting performance in the most punishing environments. SOLISTRAND is corrosion resistant, vibration resistant, and features a tensile strength well within the limits of commercial and military specifications. Our SOLISTRAND portfolio includes ring terminals, flag terminals, spade terminals, hook terminals, and flanged tongue terminals, as well as parallel splices and butt splices. We also offer associated SOLISTRAND crimping tools designed for consistent and uniform terminations, making quality control easy and performance reliable.

Benefits
- Operating Voltage: designed to handle voltage rating for assigned wire
- Many SOLISTRAND terminals meet or exceed SAE AS7928, Type I, Class 1 and 2 requirements
- Corrosion and vibration-resistant, superior tensile strength
- “W” crimp provides excellent electrical performance and higher tensile strength
- Dimples or serrations inside the wire barrel provide optimum tensile strength and maximum electrical contact area after crimping
- Bell mouth on barrel entrance makes insertion of wires easier
- Brazed seam for uniform metal strength around the entire barrel area assuring withstanding harsh industrial environments. Brazed seam also prevents pinched wires
Frequently Asked Questions
SOLISTRAND Terminals & Splices
Q.1 - Can wires be combined in SOLISTRAND products?
Ans: Yes, they can as long total CMA (Circular Mil Area) falls within specification.
Q.2 - Are TE terminals MIL specified?
Ans: Yes, most of them meet or exceed SAE AS7928, Type I, class 1.
Q.3 - What product should you use for applications with temperatures over 170 degrees Celsius?
Ans: Use TE STRATO-THERM Terminals & Splices (catalog 82011).
Q.4 - What are the best options when you require better strain relief and/or insulated Terminals & Splices?
Ans: The best options are using TE PIDG Terminals & Splices (high vibration and reliability) or TE PLASTI-GRIP Terminals & Splices (low vibration). See also Quick Reference Guides 1773464-1 and 6-1773465-8
