Two basic insulation support crimp styles.
Two wires into one crimp. The OP wants to crimp two conductors into one terminal such that the total conductor area of the two is within the range suitable for the terminal. If the ring terminals are of good quality correctly crimped and securely screwed to the plate the difference in reliability between two stacked rings and one ring with two cables should be trivial. Yes if you choose to combine multiple wires into one crimp then you absolutely need to be wary of reliability issues.
And no they can not be mitigated if you use this approach in fact I can promise you that you will have reliability issues. What is most important here is that none of the individual strands of the conductor gets cut off or otherwise damaged when more than one wire is being fitted into the terminal. If two three or even four wires fit into the terminal without damage to the individual conductors and the crimp can be made to withstands a good pull test then its OK to do it.
You should carefully remove 12 inch of the wire insulation about 1 inch back from the stripped end of your wire. Wrap the stripped end of the wire you want to add around the 12 inch of bare copper on the other wire and solder then add shrink tubing over the soldered joint. Crimp and seal the the bare end of your original wire as usual.
JX-A732 double wires combined together in one terminal crimping machine with single end both ends processing function of wire cutting stripping crimping and wires combined together in one connector designed to increase production efficiency in electronics wiring harness processing and. The crimp connector cannot form a proper crimp around the conductor cores if two wires are inserted and although with care youll get a connection it will be more prone to fatigue failure etc. Using an oversize connector and inserting two conductors into it is a sure fire recipe for a mechaniclly poor crimp as well.
Cut rubber band and use strip of rubber to bundle the loose ends of the wires to be joined into a single crimp. The task here is to immobilize the wires with respect to each other so that one or more strands dons shift out of alignment during the insertion phase. Feature 1Automatic wire cutting peeling crimping two wires into one terminal and crimping a terminal to the other end.
2The equipment is highly automated and an ordinary worker with simple training can control two fully automatic CNC double-wire combined terminal crimping machines. Two wires into one connector. You can do this.
Strip the wire and solder them together shrink wrap and then a layer of 33 to finish the job. If you want a lasting crimp and a tool that will last a lifetime unless you use it as a hammer then get a TB or Klein Sta-kon tool. F funk6294 Petty Officer 1st Class Joined Apr 26 2009 Messages 294.
Three Ends Two Wire Combined Connector Crimping Machine This is a fully automatic 3-sided wire crimping machine. It can process 2 different sized wires at the same time one side crimping both wires into one terminal and the other side crimping different terminals for each wire. WL-N03 Inquire Description Technical Data.
Two basic insulation support crimp styles. F Crimp - Insulation support barrel forms in same configuration as wire barrel crimp more relaxed B. O Crimp - Insulation support barrel wraps around wire insulation 2.
Examples of insulation support crimp adjustments. Too loose - no mechanical support or strain relief for wire. Is it acceptable to crimp two wires into one terminal.
Im going to be wiring up a switch panel composed of 4 switches soon. 3 SPST and 1 DPDT. There will be 3 wires always hot and 6 ground wires.
I considered using a small busbar but space is limited behind the dash. You could use an in-line crimp C tap to put pairs together then take the single tap into a crimp lug. It takes a special crimp tool for the C tap so you have to weigh the cost of the tool against how many of these you are going to do.

Mechanically and electrically speaking YES you can insert two wires into one end of a butt connector either as a merge into one wire out th eother end or simply as a capped connection. As for the USCG I dont know. You could always try a Y connector available from any good electrical connector supplier.
YH-N04 is a fully automatic wire cutting stripping and five ends four wires combined terminal crimping machine. It can process 4 wires at the same time one side crimping 4 wires into one terminal and the other side crimping terminals for each wire. Wire cutting striping 4 wires 5 ends terminal crimping.
Electrical connectors are necessary to join electric circuits together. But to use an electrical connector you need to attach it to a wire via crimping. Whether youre joining 2 pieces of wire or a wire.
If you have two wires going to LEDs put twist both leads together and shove it into one side of a butt connector and crimp it down. Get another piece of wire and crimp it in place on the other side. Put that single wire into the switch.
Automatic wire cutting peeling crimping two wires into one terminal and crimping a terminal to the other end. The equipment is highly automated and an ordinary worker with simple training can control two fully automatic CNC double-wire combined terminal crimping machines. Another type of crimp connector has a blind hole into which both wires to be joined are inserted together.
For safety always give a crimp connection good tug after making it to ensure its a good one. Standard crimp connectors most commonly come in the larger sizes used in auto electrics but these may be too large for some. 200 PCS Insulated Wire Butt Splice Terminals US.
This three-way splice inserts the red wire into the middle of the blue one. This is an example where inferior crimp-on wire taps would typically be used. Dont succumb to the temptation.
While soldering a wire inline is challenging once taped this splice is much more secure than any crimped. Grab two pieces of 18-gauge wire and strip 34 inch of insulation from the ends of each wire. Hold the two wires so that the bare wires cross at an angle.
Twist the two wires tightly together in a clockwise direction. Bend the twisted connection into a U-shape. Lay the U-shape connection over one of the wires.
