Furrules and Ring Terminals

There are many ways to connect wires together or to a terminal. Soldering an crimping are the most common. Crimping is easy, fast and effective.  Crimping crushes the wire around the connector and ensures a solid electrical connection.

When purchasing ring terminals, be sure to purchase those with heat shrink tubing.  The heat shrink tubing will seal the wire, and provide a professional looking waterproof connection.

Ancor produces excellent marine grade wire.  It is double insulated and fully tinned.  I use 12AWG flat duplex wire for all of the 12 Volt DC applications in the van.  Please see my video on wire size!
