Mid-Current Range Adjustable Crimp Tools

For power supply and power management applications, DMC offers our Industrial Mid-Current Range Adjustable Crimp Tools which have virtually limitless applications within the specified wire range of 6 through 18 AWG. The tools are used widely in the marine, rail, power generation, solar, and heavy transportation industries.
Mid-Current Range Adjustable Indent Crimp ToolsThe Mid-Current Range Adjustable Crimp Tools are similar to our Standard Adjustable indent Crimp Tool but have an enlarged crimp cavity to accommodate mid-current power contacts. Turret heads and positioners are available to adapt the tool frames to your specific contactwire combination. The 8 impression crimp assures absolute maximum tensile strength with almost every closed barrel contact. Special indent configurations are available upon request.
For proper operation, the tool must be mated with a multi-position turret head (or a single-position positioner. These are attached by orienting the positioner in the keyed position and by tightening the hex socket screws provided as part of the positioner.
A permanent dataplate is affixed to all turret heads and positioners. This plate lists specific contact part numbers, the corresponding position color code (for 3 position turret heads), and suggested selector depth settings for the wire size being usedOn most models, crimp depth is controlled by a position selector knob located on the tool frame. The operator simply dials the desired step for the wire being used. This setting can be secured by use of a locking pin or safety wire.
As with our Military Standard crimp tools, the cycle controlled ratchet assures a complete crimp every time. The carefully engineered design achieves the absolute maximum mechanical advantage.
Periodic gaging is recommended to insure accurate calibration. This can be done easily by setting the tool selector knob to the designated position and checking indenter closure with the “GONO-GO” gage designated for each tool.
