Part No. 64001-5900 

 
 

FEATURES 

 

 

A full cycle ratcheting hand tool ensures complete crimps 

 

Long handles for comfortable crimping with reduced crimping force 

 

A precision user-friendly terminal locator wire stop holds terminals in the proper crimping 
position 

 

Insulation crimp adjustment allows a precise insulation crimp. To meet or exceed the 
requirements of UL, CSA and Military Class II 

 

Single color-coded crimp pocket eliminates the possibility of using the wrong pocket 

 

SCOPE 

 
Products: AviKrimp

 Male Quick Disconnect Terminal for 10-12 AWG. 

 

Testing 

Mechanical 

The tensile test, or pull test, is a means of evaluating the mechanical properties of the 
crimped connections.  The following charts show the UL specifications for various wire 
sizes.  The tensile strength is shown in pounds and indicates the minimum acceptable 
force to break or separate the terminal from the conductor.
