Quantify
Hello all,
On the one hand we have some reports, so far unsubstantiated, that adding "goo" to wires pre-swaging will compromise security, or corrosion protection, or both. On the other hand we have decades of experience and actual pull test data -- I'll dig a few out of my files, and will see if Brooks will do likewise. In addition, it seems clear that Sta-loks and the like, goo-filled or not, impose less compression on the wire yarns, over less area, than swages do, and they do not pull out. So how could sealant compromise properly-made swages?
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
