While non-insulated crimping tools are used for general applications, insulated crimping tools are VDE tested up to 1000 V and are designed for use where electrical current is present. Product Maintenance: To maintain good functionality and ensure a long life, the shaft and other moving parts must be lubricated regularly. If the tool is exposed to dust or other contaminants, we recommend lubricating it at least every 10,000 cycles. Use a low-viscosity, non-mineral oil. The Importance of High-Quality Crimping: When using a crimping tool on a terminal, two crimps are made simultaneously: one is the electrical connection between the conductor and the terminal, and the other is the insulated crimp, which provides strain relief against vibration and tension. It is important to ensure an airtight electrical connection, with no air gaps between the wire strands and the terminal. Air gaps can cause corrosion, resulting in resistance and overheating, which can damage the electrical connection. Using a good quality crimping tool will ensure a completely airtight crimp and prevent future deterioration of the electrical connection and insulation.
