CERTIFICATION
Molex does not certify or re-certify hand tools but rather supplies the following guidelines for
customers to re-certify hand tools:
This tool is qualified to pull force only. To re-certify, crimp a terminal to a wire that has been
stripped 12.7mm (.500”) long so that there is no crimping of the insulation. Pull the terminal
and wire at a rate no faster than 25mm (1.00”) per minute. See the Molex website for the
Quality Crimp Handbook for more information on pull testing.
If the tool does not meet minimum pull force values, handle preload should be increased, and
the pull test should be rerun (see How to Adjust Preload).
When the hand tool is no longer capable of achieving minimum pull force, it should be taken out
of service and replaced.
