TE Connectivity PRO-CRIMPER III Hand Ratcheting for Rectangular Contacts 18-22 AWG, 0.3 → 0.8mm² Wire

PRO-CRIMPER III commercial grade hand operated crimp tools for crimping a wide range of terminals and contacts. These PRO-CRIMPER III commercial hand tools have a precision construction of durable high-carbon steel with extra strength pivot pins for long lasting performance. Commercial grade crimp tools use SDE (Standard Die Envelope) technology. SDE technology enables the dies to be used in different types of tooling within the same SDE system including, battery, pneumatic and electric tools. There is no need to have separate dies fitted to each type of tool, saving time and costs. The PRO-CRIMPER III crimp tool fits a large selection of crimp dies which can easily be interchanged. Commercial grade hand crimping tools incorporate features for long lasting performance and easy use. The PRO-CRIMPER III crimp tool features an adjustable ratchet which stays locked until the handles of the tool are fully closed and the dies are bottomed. This ratchet mechanism ensures that the tool only opens once a complete crimp cycle is achieved preventing partial crimps. An easy access ratchet release is available for opening the tool jaws at any time during the crimp cycle. The pin and socket style crimp tools feature locators which locate the contact in the dies, provide a wire stop and reduce contact rotation and bending during crimping. The head of the PRO-CRIMPER III hand crimping tool is angled to reduce hand-stretch and to allow an easier view of the crimp area. The handles have a reduced handle force and an ergonomic design reducing operator fatigue and making the tool easy and comfortable to use.
These PRO-CRIMPER III hand crimp tools are all supplied with a die set apart from stock number 849-114 which is a tool frame. Die sets for this tool need to be purchased separately.
