Intercable Wire End Sleeve ICIAE158Z Black Steel 1.8 mm² 16 mm 100 Pack

The Intercable Wire End Sleeve ICIAE158Z Black Steel 1.8 mm² 16 mm 100 Pack is a professional wiring component designed for secure and reliable electrical wire termination and connection in various electrical installations. Manufactured by Intercable Tools GmbH, this wire end sleeve ensures that stranded conductors are held firmly together, preventing stray strands and ensuring optimal contact reliability in terminal blocks and connectors. The component features a durable steel construction finished in black, offering a cross-section of 1.8 mm² and a total length of 16 mm. Supplied in a practical bulk pack of 100 pieces, it provides an efficient solution for electricians, technicians, and DIY enthusiasts working on consistent wiring tasks.

Advantages

Using the Intercable wire end sleeve helps maintain the integrity of stranded wires by grouping all individual strands securely before insertion into screw or spring clamp terminals. This prevents strand breakage, reduces contact resistance, and protects against potential short circuits caused by stray wires. The steel material provides structural robustness and secure retention, while the black finish allows for organized color-coded wiring management where required. The precise 1.8 mm² cross-section and 16 mm length ensure compatibility with standard terminal applications, and the 100-piece packaging offers a cost-effective supply for multiple installation projects.

Suitable for

• Terminating stranded electrical wires in control panels and switchgear
• Connecting wires securely in industrial wiring and automation systems
• Electrical installation work in residential and commercial buildings
• Maintenance and repair of electrical equipment and machinery

When it may not be suitable

This wire end sleeve is not intended for use with solid core electrical wires, as solid conductors do not require sleeve termination. Additionally, it may not be suitable for wire gauges or cross-sections that differ significantly from the specified 1.8 mm² capacity.

Key specifications

• Product type: Wire end sleeve
• Material: Steel
• Colour: Black
• Cross-section: 1.8 mm²
• Length: 16 mm
• Quantity per pack: 100 pieces

How to use

To use the wire end sleeve correctly, first strip the electrical wire to the appropriate length corresponding to the 16 mm sleeve dimension. Gather all stripped strands neatly without twisting them excessively, and slide the wire end sleeve over the stripped conductor until the wire insulation meets the base of the sleeve. Ensure the conductors fill the 1.8 mm² cross-section area completely. Use a calibrated crimping tool designed for wire end sleeves to press the metal sleeve securely onto the conductor before inserting the terminated wire into the target electrical terminal.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the wire cross-section of 1.8 mm² matches your specific electrical conductor requirements
• Check the length of 16 mm against your terminal depth and installation space
• Ensure you have a compatible crimping tool for proper installation
• Confirm the pack quantity of 100 pieces meets the volume required for your project

Always disconnect power sources before performing any electrical installation work and use appropriately sized crimping tools to ensure a secure and safe connection.
