PROPER USE GUIDELINES
Cumulative Trauma Disorders can result from the prolonged use of manually powered hand tools. Hand tools are intended for occasional use and low
volume applications. A wide selection of powered application equipment for extended-use, production operations is available.
The PRO-CRIMPER III Hand Tool is a "Commercial" grade tool and
is designed primarily for field installation, repair, maintenance work,
or prototyping in industrial, commercial, or institutional applications.
Product crimped with this tool will meet the crimp height requirement
for hand tools in the appropriate 114 application specification, but
may not comply with other feature parameters of the specification.

1. INTRODUCTION

Crimping Die Assembly 58536-1 is designed to crimp 75-Ohm RF Series BNC Dual-Crimp Connectors when
used in PRO-CRIMPER III Frame Assembly 354940-1.
Catalog 82074 provides a guide for cable-to-connector selection. For connectors not referenced in the catalog,
contact TE Product Engineering for recommendations.

NOTE
Dimensions in this instruction sheet are in millimeters [with inches in brackets]. Figures and illustrations are for reference only
and are not drawn to scale.

2. DESCRIPTION

The die assembly consists of an indenter die and an anvil die, which when closed form three crimping
chambers. The two larger crimping chambers crimp the ferrule of the connector onto the coaxial cable, and the
smaller crimping chamber crimps the center contact onto the center conductor of the coaxial cable. Each die is
held in the tool jaws by a single screw. See Figure 1.

3. DIE INSTALLATION

(Figure 1)
1. Close the tool handles until the ratchet releases, then allow the tool handles to open fully.
2. Install anvil die in the movable jaw of the tool frame. Align the die with the retaining screw hole, then
secure die with the die-retaining screw. Do NOT fully tighten.
3. Install indenter die in the stationary jaw of the tool frame. Slowly close the tool handles, allowing the
dies to align themselves.
