1. Determine Wire Gauge
2. Select Regular wrap (bare wire only
around terminal) or Modified wrap (first
1
1
/2
turns of insulation around terminal,
balance of turns - bare wire)
3. Determine terminal diagonal using
terminal diagonal chart below
4. Select Bit (and corresponding sleeve) using
charts on page 8 by using wire gauge,
regular/modified wrap then terminal hole
diameter
5. Insure the terminal diagonal fits between
minimum and maximum terminal diagonal
on bit and sleeve chart
Notes:
A. Once bit is selected, the corresponding
sleeve part number is printed along side
B. Bits marked with an asterisk (*) are for use
on .025" (.63mm) square terminals
C. Modified wraps are recommended for wire
diameters 26, 28, 30 AWG (.40, .32, .25mm)
when used on .025" (.63mm) square
terminals

Some Hints on Making Wrapped Connections
How to Make Wire Wrapped
Connections with OK Tools
Easy Does It!
Do not press too hard. Let the OK tools
do the work. Excessive pressure can
lead to overwrapping. Backforce "BF"
to prevent overwrapping is available
on most power tools and is recom-
mended for use with 26 through 30
AWG wire.
Feed Wire Correctly!
It’s easy to feed wire into the slot in
the OK bit correctly. Be sure the
stripped end of the wire is “pushed-in”
all the way.
Stay With It!
Just keep the OK tool on the terminal
until the wrap is complete. Early
removal can result in spiral and open
wraps.
Use the Correct Bit and
Sleeve!
Wire wrapping is a precision technique
and the wrong bit and sleeve just
cannot do the job. Improper selection
can cause problems ranging from
“Pigtails” to loose wraps.
