All Items::
Cut Pro-Tec Braid to length, from servo boot to within an inch or
two of the end that will plug into RX. Do not run braid all the way
to the RX end. This could keep leads from plugging into the RX
because of the extra thickness created by the "sleeve
bands". (ref pic 1)

2.
|
Cut Sleeve
material into “Bands” with scissors to the desired length.
Approximately 1/2 inch (12mm) at the servo and 1/4 inch (6mm) at the
connector end.
|
|
3.
|
Slide Braid over
connector(s) and wire to the approximate desired position. Braid
will expand to fit over wire ends and even several layers of wire
with no problem. A “Bic” pen inserted all the way first will
open braid and allow easy insertion of wire end. Push ink pen out
other end.
|
|
4.
|
Slide Braid over
connector to position, Slide “Sleeve Band” on, overlapping the
Braid by approx 1/8" (3mm) and overlapping other end item
(connector, servo boot, wire, line, etc.) by same or desired amount.

Hold wire so
"Sleeve Band" and Pro-Tec's Heat Resistant Braid remain in
desired position while heating with modelers heat gun. (Some Hair
Dryers will work for this as well.)
|
|
6.
|
At this point
slight re-positioning can take place. Heat all round "Sleeve
Band", concentrating heat on the sleeve and not the braid,
until total shrink has been reached.
|
|
7.
|
Hold in position
for a few seconds until cool. When using on thin wires it may be
necessary to pinch the "Sleeve Band" together at the
wire/sleeve area.
