Hi Bob you wrote this on a replyand I don't understand it "I need to upgrade that article to suggest welding cable with double-wall heat shrink as opposed to the stiff-stuff"
I plan on using B&C #4 Super-Flex Battery Leads going from firewall to engine x2: https://bandc.com/product/super-flex-battery-lead-red-raw-material/ when you suggest using double wall heat shrink, are you suggesting to use double wall heat shrink tubing only at terminal lugs or for the entire length of the welding cable?? What type of heat shrink is your suggestion? Thx. Ron P. |
Only at the ends as illustrated in my article.
Here's a good example:
https://tinyurl.com/y2eyw8k3
3/4" unshrunk with 3:1 shrink ratio. Short
pieces fit easily over your crimped/soldered
terminal but will definitely shrink to a
good fit with sealant oozing out both ends.
The high shrink ratio makes the finished
shrink wall thicker for improved flexure
support . . . the sealant keeps the moisture
out.
Good stuff Maynard!
