These tools are members of the CERTI--CRIMP*
hand crimping tool family. The ratchet on these tools
ensures full crimping of the product. Once engaged,
the ratchet will not release until the handles have
been FULLY closed.
CAUTION
The locator/insulation stop positions the product
between the jaws and aids in locating the wire in the
product. When closed, the jaws form a crimping
chamber with two sections: an insulation barrel
section and a wire barrel section. The insulation barrel
section crimps the insulation barrel of the product
onto the wire insulation and, simultaneously, the wire
barrel section crimps the wire barrel of the product
onto the wire conductors.
