描述

The 90683-2 is a bottoming die assembly designed for use with TE Connectivity's CERTI-CRIMP hand tool systems to maintain consistent crimp performance. This component is engineered to work in conjunction with the ratchet system and handle pressure mechanism to ensure proper crimp force is applied to terminals based on their stock thickness and wire circular mil area. The bottoming die design enables repeatable crimp results that meet specified tensile strength, mechanical stability, and electrical conductivity requirements. Regular maintenance and certification of the tool system, including this die component, on an 8-month or 1,000-cycle basis, ensures continued production of high-quality crimps. This tooling is essential for wire processing applications where consistent crimp quality and reliability are critical to product performance and field service support.
