Wire crimping is a technique used to connect two or more wires securely and reliably. It involves using a crimping tool to compress a metal sleeve or ferrule onto the stripped ends of the wires, creating a permanent bond.
Crimping is essential in various electrical and electronic applications, including power distribution, telecommunications, and automotive wiring. It ensures a strong and durable connection that can withstand environmental factors such as vibration, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. Crimped connections are also less prone to failure and provide a consistent electrical path compared to other methods like soldering or twisting.
