NOTES:
1. Use only genuine Glenair/Band-It bands. Other 2
manufacturer’s bands may damage tool.
2. Use only .240" wide bands with 600-058 tool
and .120" wide bands with 600-061 tool.
Shield Termination Preparation Process

Step 1
Prepare Cable Braid for termination process.
NOTE: banding must occur on an unfixtured

cable assembly. Attaching a band to a firmly
clamped cable will affect the applied forces and
will also interfere with the cut-off operation.
The cut-off operation causes a rotation of the
band termination in order to lock the band.
Step 2
Push braid forward over banding platform.
Milk braid as required to remove slack and
insure a snug fit around the shield termina-
tion area.

Shield Termination Assembly Process

Step 3
Double-coil the band prior to use:
IMPORTANT: Due to connector/adapter circumference, it may be necessary to

double-coil the band in place around the cable or retention area.
A. Insert leading edge of band through the buckle slot twice. (Bands must be
double-coiled.)
B. Tighten the coil until the indicator mark ( ) is approximately .250 inch
(6.4mm) shy of the buckle slot (see illustration below). This will ensure sufficient
band tail length for insertion into tool.

Step 4
Depress the band insertion and release lever (5), and insert the band into the
front end opening of the tool, with the loop positioned outward as shown.
Squeeze the band insertion

and release lever

Step 5
The band termination area on all backshells is wider than the band. Position
the band near the rear lip of the banding platform, allowing room for buckle.
For eliptical cable entries position the buckle off center of the peak of the circle.
Failure to follow these guidelines will result in poor performance.
Position the band near
the rear lip leaving
room for buckle.

Step 6
Contract the band with the tensioning lever (2) using short, even strokes, as
the band is firmly secured on termination area pull a full stroke to lock handle
handle against the tool body indicating the band is compressed to the proper
tension.
NOTE: Overly rapid tightening of the band may result in uneven compression. If
alignment of the band and shield is unsatisfactory, tension can be relaxed by pulling
up tension lever (2) and pushing the release lever (7) forward on top of the tool.
Make adjustments as necessary and finish tightening with tensioning lever (2) as
described above.Instructional videos are available on the Glenair website:
