RS PRO Crimp Tool for Insulated Terminals

Introducing the RS PRO Crimp Tool for insulated terminals. This high-quality tool has been designed with precision crimping dies that enable accurate and easy connector crimping with minimal user effort. The DuoTech soft-grip handles have been ergonomically designed with the user in mind, for ultimate comfort and confidence in the grip of the crimper. This tool is ideal for applications where a consistent and reliable crimp connection to end splices or ferrule wires are required, giving you the confidence and trust in a high quality finished task.

Features and Benefits:

• The RS PRO crimp tool offers precision crimping dies for a high-quality consistent and reliable crimp
• DuoTech soft grip handle allows for optimum user comfort and ergonomics, while it works as a non-slip handle with little friction to avoid any injury or accidental slipping
• The hand tool also features a self-releasing mechanism which allows the tool to be locked in place for a secure crimp
• Lightweight, sturdy and easy to use design
• Suitable from crimping insulated terminals
• Crimp capacity insulated: 0.5 mm to 6 mm
• Total Tool length: 220 mm

Applications:

• A crimp tool is a hand tool that is used to conjoin two parts of metal or cable that hold on to each other, for example when splicing two cables together to make a new connection. It’s an essential tool when working with cabling or wires because it is important to ensure the crimp is of a high-quality for connectivity and conductivity between the two items crimped together. Crimp tools easy to use and are most commonly used in professional and DIY capacities for:
• Maintenance and repair
• Electrical installation
• Cable assemblies

Why is a high-quality, accurate crimp important?

• For crimping insulated terminals
• Precision crimping dies
• Self-releasing mechanism
• Softgrip PP handles
• Frame and jaws made from hardened carbon steel for improved durability and long life operation
• High compression pressure ensure secure crimping

When a crimping tool is used on a terminal, two crimps take place at the same time. One is the electrical connection between the conductor and the terminal. The other is the insulation crimp which provides strain relief against vibration and tension. It is important that the electrical connection is gas-tight without any voids between the wire strands and the terminal. If there any voids present, then corrosion can occur causing resistance and excessive heat which damages the electrical connection. Using a good quality crimping tool will ensure that a full, gas-tight crimp is produced preventing future deterioration of the electrical connection and insulation breakage.

How do you maintain the crimp tool?

• Axles and any other movable parts should be regularly lubricated to ensure a good function and long life is maintained
• Lubrication with a light mineral-free oil is recommended at least every 10,000 cycles whenever the tool is exposed to contaminants
• Adjustment of the crimping die nests should also be checked. If necessary, readjustment of the pressure adjustment axle may be required when the pre-load of the tool decreases significantly
