The thermOweld® connection is a molecular weld. The weld has the same melting point as copper. This factor, along with increased cross sectional area of the connection and insure the following:
  • thermOweld® connections are not affected by a high current surge. Tests have shown that the electrical conductor will melt before the thermOweld® connection, when subjected to high short circuit current. Consult IEEE Standard 837.
  • thermOweld® connections will not loosen or corrode at the point of weld. There are no contact surfaces or mechanical pressures involved.
  • thermOweld® connections have a current-carrying capacity equal to or greater than that of the conductors.

The EZ Lite® Mold


  • Makes all thermOweld® molds EZ to ignite.
  • Lights from the top at any angle.
  • Reduces emissions by 50% or more.
  • Reduces splatter.
  • Keeps the handle clamps clean and prolongs life.
  • Added Safety-the EZ Lite® Lid points the exhaust away from the user.

INSTALLATION IS EASY!
