Produce ConsistentHigh Quality Terminations
Premium CERTI-CRIMP and CERTI-CRIMP II Hand Tools are top-of-the-line, hand-operated tools for crimping a broad array of terminals, contacts and special wiring devices available from Tyco Electronics.
They are designed to exacting specifications to produce consistent, high-quality terminations. A potential service life of over 50,000 cycles is possible, depending on operator care.
Your Choice
There are currently seven basic styles of CERTI-CRIMP Hand Tools. The choice depends on the product being applied and/or your preferred method of application. For example, open barrel contacts typically require straight-action die movement to minimize possible rotation during crimping. Or, if your application requires crimping different sizes of terminals, you may prefer using a single tool with a combination of crimping nests, rather than two or three separate tools.
Other options include insulation crimp adjustment for different insulation thicknesses, a locator for properly positioning and supporting the terminal or contact in the tool, a wire stop, and color coding and/or wire size information on the head of the tool or on the handles.
Ratchet Control
All CERTI-CRIMP Hand Tools feature the reliable ratchet control. The ratchet will not release until the handles are fully closed and the dies bottomed. This helps eliminate partial crimps.
CERTI-CRIMP Hand Tools are well suited for low production runs, prototype work, and repairs - almost any application requiring consistent, highly-reliable terminations. CERTI-CRIMP Hand Tools are designed to meet all feature requirements listed on applicable Tyco Electronics Application Specifications. (Check appropriate product catalogs for qualification to military specifications, UL recognition and CSA certification.)
