Re: Question on Crimping

You want a gas-tight joint AKA "cold weld" when crimping.
I usualy cut short pieces of wire and stuff the crimp sleeve until the conductor wire is very tightly held against the crimp surface. Then I spray with Pro-Gold by Caig Labs, then crimp very tightly.
Looping the wire is not as clean as adding wire, IMO.
Good luck
