How to Install the FILLERLOK™ Compression Tap

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the FILLERLOK™ Compression Tap for secure electrical connections.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, ALUMA-SHIELD® Aluminum Joint Compound, Terminal connectors

  1. Prepare the cable

    If the cable is insulated, strip the insulation carefully by whittling to avoid damaging the strands. Clean the aluminum cable with a wire brush or emery cloth to remove any surface oxide.

  2. Apply joint compound

    Smear a thin layer of ALUMA-SHIELD® Aluminum Joint Compound on the stripped aluminum cable. Ensure that the Main and Branch grooves of the connector are not disturbed.

  3. Insert and secure the cable

    Center the stripped cable in the Main or Branch grooves of the connector. Close the FILLERLOK™ tab securely to ensure a proper connection.

  4. Crimp the connector

    Using the appropriate crimping tool and die, insert the connector into the tool die head. Make compressions between the color bands on the connector, starting from the center and working outward.

  5. Inspect the connection

    After crimping, check for any sharp edges, flashes, or burrs on the connector. Remove any imperfections to ensure a safe and secure connection.

  6. Insulate the connection

    Follow the insulation methods specified in the installation table to properly insulate the crimped connection.
