Why Choose the Partex SHSB-2 Solder Heatshrink Butt Connectors?
The Partex SHSB-2 is a solder heatshrink butt connector designed for joining electrical conductors with cross-sectional areas from 0.5–1.5 mm². Combining solder connection technology with heatshrink insulation, these connectors provide a practical solution for joining compatible wires in electrical installations, wiring harnesses, machinery and industrial equipment.
Unlike conventional crimp butt connectors, solder heatshrink connectors incorporate a solder connection area within a heatshrink sleeve. When correctly heated, the solder melts to join the prepared conductors while the surrounding sleeve contracts around the connection. This combines conductor joining and insulation into a single installation process, reducing the need for separate solder sleeves and insulation materials.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 25 connectors, the Partex SHSB-2 is suitable for electrical contractors, control panel builders, equipment manufacturers and maintenance engineers. Its 0.5–1.5 mm² conductor range makes it a practical choice for compatible small-section wiring connections, electrical repairs and cable assembly work.

Solder Heatshrink Butt Connectors for Electrical Wiring and Cable Repairs
Solder heatshrink butt connectors are used to create inline electrical connections between compatible conductors. Each connector incorporates a solder joining section within a heatshrink sleeve, allowing the conductors to be joined and insulated through the application of controlled heat. This arrangement is useful in wiring harness assembly, electrical equipment servicing and conductor repair applications where a soldered splice is appropriate.
The Partex SHSB-2 is intended for conductors from 0.5–1.5 mm². During installation, the conductor ends should be prepared, inserted into the connector and positioned within the solder joining area. A suitable heat source is then applied until the solder flows and the sleeve contracts around the connection. The completed joint should be allowed to cool without movement and inspected before use. Installers should confirm that soldered connections are permitted for the intended application and that the connector is suitable for the electrical and environmental conditions.
Typical Applications
- Electrical wiring harness assembly and repair.
- Industrial machinery wiring maintenance.
- Control panel auxiliary wiring repairs where soldered splices are permitted.
- Electrical equipment servicing and conductor replacement.
- Joining compatible small-section electrical wires.
- OEM electrical equipment assembly.
- Inline cable repairs and wiring extensions.
- General electrical installation and maintenance work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Partex SHSB-2 used for?
The Partex SHSB-2 is a solder heatshrink butt connector used to join compatible electrical conductors end to end. It combines a heat-activated solder connection with a heatshrink sleeve to provide an insulated inline wire splice.
What wire sizes are compatible with the Partex SHSB-2?
The SHSB-2 is designed for electrical conductors with cross-sectional areas from 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm². Both conductors should be suitable for the connector and the intended electrical application.
How do you install a Partex SHSB-2 solder heatshrink connector?
Strip the conductor ends to the appropriate length, insert them into opposite ends of the connector and position them within the solder joining area. Apply controlled heat using suitable equipment until the solder flows and the heatshrink sleeve contracts. Allow the connection to cool without movement and inspect the completed joint before use.
Does the Partex SHSB-2 require a crimping tool?
No. The SHSB-2 uses a heat-activated solder connection rather than a conventional mechanical crimp. A suitable controlled heat source is required to activate the solder and shrink the insulating sleeve.
How many Partex SHSB-2 connectors are supplied in a pack?
The Partex SHSB-2 is supplied in a pack of 25 solder heatshrink butt connectors, suitable for electrical wiring repairs, cable assembly and maintenance applications.
