BODY ASSEMBLY

1. Slide ferrule and (if supplied) heat shrinkable tubing on to cable.

2. Trim cable to dimensions shown.

3. Tin center conductor (DO NOT OVER TIN).

4. Slide body over cable dielectric and under the braid until braid is flush against under-side of body.

Ensure center conductor is located in the forked end of the contact.

NOTE: When using cables with inflexible jackets it is permissible to make two 3,17 (.125)

longitudinal slits in the outer jacket.

5. Slide ferrule flush against the body and crimp in position using ITT Cannon’s Crimp Tool and

suitable die set (see table).

6. Using a small soldering iron solder center conductor to contact.

NOTE: The center conductor should not protrude beyond the contact or touch the body. Solder

should not protrude beyond the slotted section of the contact.

7. Locate the cap in rear of body and dimple or lightly punch to ensure it is locked in position.

8. Slide heat shrinkable tubing over ferrule flush against body and heat until tubing shrinks down.

Only common cable retention features are shown in detail. Various body configurations can apply.
