RS PRO Plier Action Bootlace Ferrule hand Crimp Tool
RS PRO Plier Crimping Tool has been designed for the precise indent crimping of bootlace wire-end ferrules without plastic collars in the cross-section range of 0.5 to 16 mm2. This RS PRO crimp tool has been designed for professional use with the highest attention to details. Wire end ferrules can be inserted easily from the side. Ergonomically designed handles guarantee safe, anti-slip and easy operation.
Features and Benefits:
• Suitable for crimps ferrules without insulating collars in the cross-section range of 0.5mm to 16mm2
• Ergonomically designed handles
• Compact and lightweight tool for professional use
Typical Applications:
• Maintenance & repair
• Electrical Installations
• Cable assemblies
FAQ’s:
What is the difference between un-insulated and insulated crimp tools?
Un-insulated crimp tools are typically used for general applications, whereas the insulated crimp tools have been VDE tested up to 1000 V, designed for use where electrical current is present.
How do you maintain the product?
• Axles and other movable parts should be regularly lubricated.
• Lubrication* 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. Readjustment of the pressure adjustment axle is necessary when the pre-load of the tool decreases significantly.
The Importance of a High-Quality Crimp
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 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.
