THE TECHNOLOGY OF WIRE WRAPPING A wire wrapped connection is made by coiling the wire around the sharp corners of a terminal under mechanical tension. This method of connection was developed by Bell Telephone Laboratories, Western Electric Company. Five Steps To Make A Regular Modified Wire Size Chart Wire Wrap Connection Bare Wire Dia.

A “Modified” bit wraps a portion of .0253 0.643 22 insulation around the terminal in addition to the .024 0.61 23 bare wire. This greatly increases the ability to 3 withstand vibration. .0226 0.574 23 .022 0.559 24 A distinct advantage of wire wrapping is the .0201 0.51 24 ease with which a wire may be removed from .020 0.508 25 4 a terminal to correct errors or modify wiring. .018 0.457 26 An unwrap tool is slipped over the terminal, .0179 0.455 25 engaging the first turn of the connection. .0164 0.417 27 5 Rotating the tool, the connection is removed in .0159 0.404 26 seconds, without damage to the terminal. .0148 0.376 28 .0142 0.361 27 There is a constant surveillance of manufacturing .0136 0.345 29 dimensions.
