We now offer a comprehensive kit that includes crimpers and ferrules (20 ga and 24 ga) along with our popular OLC-2 connectors, designed by our engineers with naval brass barrels, a nylon sleeve, and two set screws. This new connection method rivals the strength of gas-tight cold welds, ensuring the most reliable and long-lasting wire connections Electronics International has ever offered for your aircraft engine monitors.

Prepare the Wires: Strip the ends of the wires to the appropriate length.

Crimp the Ferrules: Place the stripped wire ends into the ferrules and use the crimper to secure them.

Insert into OLC-2: Insert the crimped ferrule ends into the OLC-2 connector and tighten the set screws.

Crimp the ferrule.

Snip off any excess wire that may be protruding through the end of the ferrule terminal.

Pull on the crimped ferrule (3 to 4lbs) to ensure that it is firmly attached to the wire.

Insert the crimped ferrule into OLC-2 and tighten with a hex wrench until the hex wrench flexes (3 inches lbs). Repeat on the opposite end to complete your connection.

Pull on wires (3 to 4lbs) to ensure that your connections on both sides of the OLC-2 are firm and secure.

Looks Great, and intuitive to use. Packs a lot of information in a tight area, yet, I don’t need my glasses to read it!
[I chose EI because they offer a] certified replacement vs. back-up only and they look great.
It works very well; easy operation.
Haven’t used it yet, but we are excited to & Love the way it looks!!
Awesome product. Fast easy installation.
Currently have multiple EI Instruments in our aircraft. Quality and reliability are key.
Great… price [&] support
The R-1-6 is a great instrument. [I chose EI because of] quality.
Very accurate readings! The “analog” style LED arc means at-a-glance tach readings that allow the pilot to keep his attention where it matters, not reading a gauge. The digital readout is great for maintenance checks and mag drop tests.
Easy install and great gauges. Previous experience showed that EI’s units were… great prices and even better instruments. Being able to install the gauge as a primary instrument was a major plus.
Very impressed with the clarity and readability of the CGR-30P gauge.
