How to use the 3M Scotchlok Electrical Insulation Displacement Connector 314-BOX, Pigtail, Moisture Resistant and Flame Retardant
- Add 2 or 3 unstripped wires into the connector and check their positions by using the translucent connector body
- When holding the tool perpendicular to the wires, make the connection by driving the cap with the top edge of the connector body
We recommend the E-9BM Crimping Tool from 3M with this superior connector. A crimping tool is typically used to join two segments of metals by deforming either one or both of them; the deformation causes them to attach to each other.
The deformation caused by the tool is called a crimp, and one of the most common uses of a crimping tool is to fix a connector to the end of a cable. The E-9BM Crimping Tool from 3M is a heavy-duty crimping tool that is compatible with all of Scotchlok's connectors. It features a parallel closing action and has adjustable jaws that provide a ten to one mechanical advantage. It can handle all wire gauges.
