2. DESCRIPTION
Each crimping head features a head containing two
stationary crimping dies (anvils) and two movable
crimping dies (indenters), a locator, an insulation
crimping adjustment pin, and a battery powered crimp
tool. See Figure 1.
When closed, the crimping dies form one crimping
chamber with two sections: an insulation barrel
section and a wire barrel section. The insulation barrel
section crimps the terminal onto the wire insulation
and, simultaneously, the wire barrel section crimps
the terminal wire barrel onto the stripped wire. The
locator positions the terminal in the crimping chamber.
The insulation crimping adjustment pin is used to
regulate the height of the insulation crimp.
Using Heavy Head Battery Powered Hand Tool Kits
1901235–3 or –4 will ensure full crimping of the
terminal. The rams on tools 1901235–1 and –2 can
be retracted before the terminal is fully crimped.
This controlled document is subject to change.
