[QUOTE="JimGore, post: 308922, member: 3"] Thanks very much. The ferrules I have are tin plated copper and the grub screws will definitely pierce all the way through the tin, so I presume that will work well enough? Interesting to know the following: Wire of high purity has been produced having a conductivity of slightly over 103% IACS, which is very near the value expected for copper without any impurity. Just for interest sake, the conductivity % IACS of the following: * Gold = 73.40% * Silver = 105 - 108.4% * Conventional soft solder = 8.8% * Tin / Silver solder = 16.6% * Aluminium = 61% Kind of makes you wonder, seeing as the solder is by far the weakest link here... Cheers, Ian. [/QUOTE]
