BESCHRIJVING

The 2-456403-0 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 to achieve a target area index (AI) of approximately 80%, which is critical for ensuring proper electrical and mechanical connection quality. Key dimensional parameters include a nominal crimp height of 0.073 in, crimp width of 0.110 in, crimper leg taper of 3.0 degrees, and anvil width of 0.109 in, with a nominal anvil-to-crimper clearance of 0.005 in. The tooling components (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 the terminal barrel. Proper dimensional control of this tooling is essential to minimize flash generation and maintain consistent crimp quality across production runs, making it suitable for high-volume wire termination operations in automotive, aerospace, and industrial connector applications.
