What happens here

The same sealing process is applied to a ring terminal connector. A pre-crimped ring terminal on a red electrical wire is carefully positioned within the yellow SpliSeal tool, and the tool is closed. The Surebonder hot glue gun is then used to inject the black sealant into the tool's cavity, fully encasing the ring terminal and the exposed wire-to-terminal junction. After a brief curing period, the tool is opened to reveal the ring terminal now protected by a durable, waterproof seal, making it suitable for applications exposed to moisture or harsh conditions. The finished product is displayed from various angles.

Goal: Create a durable, waterproof seal for a ring terminal connection.

Tools and materials

  • Electrical wire — The conductor with the ring terminal
  • Ring terminal connector — Electrically connecting a wire to a stud or post (already crimped)
  • SpliSeal tool — Holding the ring terminal during sealing and molding the sealant
  • Surebonder hot glue gun Surebonder — Melting and injecting the sealant
  • Hot glue stick — Encapsulating the ring terminal for waterproofing
