Measuring and Adjusting Crimp Diameters
▲
WARNING:
Protect the safety of people using your assemblies! Your measured crimp
diameters MUST be in tolerance range as listed in the Crimp Data Manual.
NOTE: DO NOT measure on top of part number stamps
or ridges
.
1. Measure crimp diameter.
•
Measure halfway between ridges. (Fig. 1) To be sure crimp diameter is being
properly measured, mark a crimp flat. Beginning with that flat, count 4 flats to get
the diameter. Be sure caliper fingers DO NOT touch ridges or part number
stamps. (See Photo 3.)
•
Measure halfway between the ends of the crimped portion of the ferrule. (Fig. 2)
