ABSTRACT:
A conductive metal coupling sleeve harder and springier than the conductor and connector to be joined is interposed between them. The sleeve having patterned inside and outside surfaces is placed over the conductor end and the conductor-sleeve combination is inserted into the bore of the desired connector and subjected to compressing forces to crimp the components together. The patterns of the sleeve interlock with the conductor and the walls that define the connector bore. The springiness of the sleeve insures good electrical conductivity between the components in the event there is some springback of the components upon the termination of assembly compression or creep during use.
