Insulation Crimp Note

Due to the terminal’s insulation grip design and/or 
insulation diameter range, this tool uses “overlap” form 
geometry in the insulation punch. This produces an 
overlap insulation crimp (A620 – compliant). While the 
insulation punch profile may appear “lopsided”, this is a 
normal condition for this tool. See figure to the right. 
(Some tools with multiple crimp pockets may not have 
the “overlap” profile on all pockets).

After crimping, the crimp profiles should measure the following.

Tool Qualification Notes: 

1.

 

Pull Force should be measured with no influence from the 
insulation crimp. 

2.

 

The above specifications are guidelines to an optimum crimp. 

 

OPERATION 

 
Open the tool by squeezing the handles together, at the end of the 
closing stroke, the ratchet mechanism will release the handles, and 
the hand tool will spring open. 
 

Crimping Terminals 

 
1.

 

Lift the wire stop blade up. 

2.

 

Insert the terminal fully into the correct profile until the terminal is fully seated and stops. 

3.

 

Bring down the wire stop blade. 

4.

 

Slide the pre-stripped wire into the wire stop blade.  See Figure 1.  Be sure to hold the wire in place until the 
terminal is fully crimped.  See Figure 2. 

5.

 

Close the tool until the ratchet releases, the tool handles will then spring open. 

6.

 

Lift the wire stop blade up if it is still in down position. 

7.

 

Carefully remove the crimped terminal.
