Rivet Clips for heating film connection create a secure and stable electric terminal in carbon heating film systems. Importantly, they help transfer current safely between the power cable and the copper strip of the heating mat. As a result, the installation can work reliably when you use the correct tools and insulation materials.
Secure Rivet Clips for Heating Film Connection
Installers use these Termofol rivet clips during professional electric underfloor heating film installation. Furthermore, each clip includes separate parts that you press together during fitting. This process creates a firm mechanical and electrical connection with the heating film.
However, proper installation matters. Use an appropriate crimping tool or pliers, together with an eye puncher tool, to prepare the copper strip before fitting the clip.
Installation Guidelines
- Clip Structure: Each rivet clip includes three separate parts, as shown in the product image.
- Required Tool: Use an appropriate crimping tool or suitable pliers for installation.
- Eye Puncher: Use an eye puncher tool to make a clean hole in the copper strip.
- Film Preparation: Make a hole in the copper section of the heating film before inserting the terminal.
- Terminal Position: Insert the wire terminal between the two layers of the heating film.
- Crimping: Press the clip firmly using a crimping tool or pliers.
- Electrical Use: Use these clips for electrical installation of carbon heating film systems.
- Final Protection: Secure the connection with black sticky butyl tape after installation.
Important Safety Note
After installation, protect the connection on both sides of the heating mat. Therefore, apply black butyl tape over the copper section and terminal area. This step insulates the connection and helps protect it from movement, moisture, and accidental contact.
Finally, Rivet Clips for heating film connection offer a practical and reliable accessory for completing carbon heating film installations. Overall, they help create a clean, secure, and professional connection when you use the correct installation tools.
