Warranty
This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. This tool is made of the best
quality materials. All vital components are long life tested. All tools are warranted to be free
of manufacturing defects for a period of
30 days.
Should such a defect occur, we would
exchange the tool free of charge. This will not be applicable to altered, misused, or damaged
tools. This tool is designed for hand use only. Any clamping, fixturing, or use of handle
extensions voids this warranty.
Hand held crimping tools are intended for low volume, prototyping, or repair requirements
only.
CAUTION:
Repetitive use of this tool should be avoided.
Notes:
1. This tool should only be used for the terminals and wire gauges specified on this sheet.
2. This tool is not adjustable for crimp height, however crimp force is adjustable (See
instructions above). Variations in tools, terminals, wire stranding and insulation types may
affect crimp height.
3. This tool is intended for standard conductor sizes. It may not give a good insulation crimp
support for all insulation sizes.
4. Molex does not repair hand tools (see warranty above) The replacement parts listed are
the only parts available for repair. If the handles or crimp tooling is damaged or worn, a
new tool must be purchased.
5. Pull force should be used as the final criteria for an acceptable crimp. Pull force is
measured with no influence from the insulation crimp. The insulation should be
stripped long (1/2 in.) so the insulation grips on the terminal do not grip the wire
insulation or the conductor. Refer to Molex Quality Crimping Handbook 63800-0029
for additional information on crimping and crimp testing.
6. Molex does not certify crimp hand tools.
CAUTION
: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals,
applicators and tooling.
