How can aluminium cables be stretchedlengthened for automotive environment?

My company's business is stretching and armouring cars. In the former process we must also stretchlengthen all the wires. We've just come across aluminium cables, which pose a problem — until now we used to cut and solder the cables together with the extension.

The sections we have to deal with are (in mm²):

  • 0.5
  • 0.75
  • 1
  • 1.5
  • 2.5

I'd like to know what [industrial] options are available to stretch aluminium cables. There is one possibility that is out of question: replacing entire cables with longer ones. We don't have all the connectors since not every single of them is available, some are proprietary and brand-specific. So we're left with actually stretch"stretch" the cables.

So what are the available options?
