描述

456134-6 is a crimp tooling component designed for wire barrel termination in electrical connector assembly processes. The tooling is engineered to maintain precise crimp height (CH) and crimp width (CW) dimensions that directly control the area index (AI) performance, with a typical design point of 80% AI. The component incorporates critical dimensional specifications including a nominal crimp height of 0.073 inches, crimp width of 0.110 inches, crimper leg taper of 3.0 degrees, and anvil width of 0.109 inches, with a nominal anvil-to-crimper clearance of 0.005 inches. Material selection emphasizes high-strength properties to withstand aggressive forming loads, shear stresses, and moderate shock during the plastic deformation and extrusion process. This tooling is essential for maintaining consistent pull test values, crimp symmetry, and production throughput in high-volume wire termination operations across telecommunications, automotive, and industrial connector applications.
