6 Hand tool description
The HT11K hand tool essentially consists of a crimping head and a moveable grip joined by rivets.
The grip has a ratchet mechanism to ensure proper crimping in accordance with TE specifications.
The crimping head is equipped with a sliding crimping die designed to match the product to be pro-
cessed. The wire cross-sections that can be processed are indicated by markings on the front of the
crimping die. The selected wire cross-section is shown in a small window above the crimping die.
