The Advanced Band Termination System for Mission-Critical Interconnect Cable Shielding
Series 600Series 601
Band-Master ATS® provides quick, easy, cost-effective and highly-reliable termination of braided metallic shielding or fabric braid to connectors and backshells. The calibrated tooling applies a constant 360° force to both individual and overall wire shields and meets the toughest aerospace standards. New reduced-length standard and micro bands eliminate waste on small-diameter termination assemblies. New nano band technology enables ultra-low-profile banding shield termination of nano miniature connectors and small form-factor banding backshells — metal and composite. All Band-Master ATS® termination tools are now equipped with built-in calibration counters for better quality assurance and control of banding operations.
The Band-Master ATS® Advanced Cable Shield Termination System is the overwhelming favorite throughout the military aerospace and defense industries, providing excellent static loading and fatigue stress, and corrosion resistance in electrical wire interconnect systems.

Engineering Bulletin for Notification of Design Changes in 600-058 and 600-061 Tools
This letter serves as a formal notification that effective July 20, 2021, Glenair, Inc. will no longer be selling the originally supplied version of our 600-058 Tie-Dex II band tools. The 600-058 number will represent a tool built on the same recognizable platform with a redesigned more durable and consistent cutoff mechanism which we refer to as our "one piece blade" system.

Manual Banding Tool for Slim Standard BandsChoose Glenair Slim Standard Bands for size and weight savings. Slim bands are 50% lighter with 50% lower profile than our standard bands, while maintaining similar performance. Slim bands are better at conforming to irregular platform shapes (elliptical platforms) and individual braid buildup (pig tails).
