DEBEGLASS - TERMINATION OPTIONS

 

Method 1 - Terminating using Debeclips
Debeclip Termination
By far the quickest and most convenient method of terminating Debeglass is to use a
Debeclip. This method is suitable for 4, 5 and 6 mm Debeglass. All that is required
to perform a termination, beside the Debeclip, is a phillips head screwdriver. Shown
above is a Debeclip terminating a length of DB-5, 5 mm Debeglass.
100% of the Debeglass's tensile strength available when using a Debeclip terminator.

 

Preparing the Debeglass end for Debeclip termination.
Debeclip termination - Part 1
Tie a knot in the end of the Debeglass and measure 30 cm back from it.

 

Debeclip termination - Part 2
Having first un-screwed the Debeclip cover, hold the 30 cm point of the
Debeglass on the edge of the Debeclip opening, and curl the Debeglass
into the Debeclip.

 

Debeclip termination - Part 3
Continue to roll the Debeglass into the Debeclip. Making sure
the Debeglass is around the outside of the Debeclip's centre
section.

 

Debeclip termination - Part 4
Once the 30 cm length of Debeglass has been curled around
the centre section of the Debeclip, tuck the knot into the
centre and replace the cover.
Method 2 - Using Glue & Binding
with Nylon Line plus Heatshrink
Alternate Debeglass Termination Method 2
The above illustrated method of termination provides the user with
95 - 100% of the Debeglass's tensile strength.
Method 3 - Using Stainless
Steel Wire Rope Grips and
Thimble.
Alternate Debeglass Termination Method 3
The above illustrated method of termination, using
 3 x Wirerope Grips and a Thimble, provides the user with
60 - 65% of the Debeglass's tensile strength.
