DESCRIPCIÓN

The 539685-2 is a crimp tooling component used in the termination process for electrical connectors and wire assemblies. The tooling is designed to achieve precise crimp geometry with a typical Area Index (AI) design point of 80%, where crimp height (CH) and crimp width (CW) are maintained at a ratio of approximately 65% to ensure consistent termination quality. Critical dimensional parameters include 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. The tooling components, particularly the wire crimper and anvil, are manufactured from materials selected to withstand high loads, moderate shock, and the shear loading generated during the plastic deformation and extrusion of terminal barrels. This crimp tooling is essential for maintaining production quality metrics such as crimp symmetry, pull test values, and lead throughput in high-volume electrical connector assembly operations.
