描述

7-2266038-7 is a crimp tooling component designed for wire barrel termination in high-precision connector assembly processes. The tooling operates on critical dimensional parameters including crimp height (CH) and crimp width (CW), which directly influence the Area Index (AI) performance metric, typically designed to achieve 80% AI. The component must maintain strict dimensional tolerances, such as CH tolerance of ±0.002 in and CW control within 2% variation to prevent excessive flash and ensure consistent termination quality. Key functional demands include withstanding high shear loading from frictional forces during barrel deformation and plastic extrusion, as well as moderate shock loads during the forming process. This tooling is essential for maintaining production quality metrics including crimp symmetry, pull test values, and lead throughput in automated wire termination systems used across connector manufacturing.
