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).
CONDITIONS:
After crimping, the conductor profiles should measure the following.

To Achieve IPC-A-620 Class 2 Crimps, the following over-all wire insulation diameter ranges are recommended:
Profile 22: 1.40 – 1.65mm (.055-.065 inch)
Profile 24: 1.30 – 1.60mm (.051-.063 inch)

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.
Note:
A crimp height chart is provided with this manual as Reference Only. Due to the wide range of wires, strands,
insulation diameters, and durometers available,
actual crimp height measurements may very
slightly. An occasional, destructive, pull force test
should be performed to check hand tool crimp.
Pull Force value Must exceed the Minimum pull
force specifications listed.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Install only Molex terminals
listed above with this tool. Do not crimp
hardened objects as damage can occur to
the tool or die.
