Step 4 - Assemble a female threaded pipe adapter to each l50 mm (6 in) section of pipe using approved procedures.
Step 5 - Select pipe for the splice center section. With the pipe cutter, cut the pipe to length (see figure lCl-2).
NOTE: The splice center section pipe diameter may be larger than the splice end pipe diameter, but the male threaded pipe adapters used on the center section pipe must be compatible with the female threaded pipe adapters assembled to the splice end pipes.
Total length equal

Step 6 - Assemble the male threaded pipe adapters to each end of the center section pipe using approved procedures.
NOTE: The total length of the assembled male threaded adapters and center section pipe shall be equal to the splice section length.
Step 7 - Determine the total splice length. The total splice length can be obtained by mating the two splice ends to the splice center section and measuring the length of the assembly.
Step 8 - Cut a length of heat shrink sleeve (with an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of the splice center section and splice ends) equal to the total splice length minus 30 mm (l in).
NOTE: A cold shrink sleeve may be used in lieu of a heat shrink sleeve.
Step 9 - Cut two lengths of heat shrink sleeve (with an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of pipe on the splice end) approximately 200 mm (8 in) in length.
NOTE: A cold shrink sleeve may be used in lieu of a heat shrink sleeve. Step l0 -Slide the shrink sleeves, the splice ends, and the splice center
section onto the two BOF cables as shown in figure lCl-3.
