Sta-Lok Wire Connector Terminals – Technical Information – How to assemble
Sta-Lok Terminal Instruction 1

1. Cut wire rope and slide socket component over wire.

Wind tape around wire approx 12″ (300mm) from end. This will prevent the socket from sliding down the wire.

TIP: If using a hacksaw to cut your wire rope, wind tape around wire to ensure a neat cut.

Sta-Lok Terminal Instruction 4

4. Reposition outer strands.

Turn outer strands either clockwise or anti-clockwise, depending on the lay of the wire, around the wedge. Ensure approx 1/8″ (2-3mm) of the central core protrudes from the end of the wedge.

Outer strands should be evenly situated around the wedge. Care should be taken to ensure that a strand does not slip into the slit of the wedge.

TIP: Push the socket towards end of wire, while repositioning the outer strands, this will help control. When wire strands are in position, push socket firmly, as indicated to hold wires in position.
