1. INTRODUCTION

Hand Crimping Tool 68026 is designed to crimp the tab end of TERMI-FOIL terminals and splices (reference

part numbers are listed in Figure 1) onto foil with a maximum thickness of 0.76 mm [.020 in.]. This tool is a

member of the CERTI-CRIMP* hand crimping tool family. The ratchet on these tools ensures full crimping of

the product. Once engaged, the ratchet will not release until the handles have been FULLY closed.

NOTE

Dimensions in this instruction sheet are in metric units [with U.S. customary units in brackets]. Figures and illustrations are for

reference only and are not drawn to scale.

Reasons for reissue of this instruction sheet are provided in Section 6, REVISION SUMMARY.

2. DESCRIPTION

The tool consists of two handles, a ratchet, and two jaws each with a crimping die. The crimping dies have flat

faces which squeeze the lance-faced tab end of the terminal or splice into the foil.

CAUTION

The dies bottom before the ratchet releases. DO NOT re-adjust the ratchet.

3. CRIMPING PROCEDURE

NOTE

Depending on the foil and the terminal configuration, it may be necessary to crimp the wire barrel before crimping the tab end.

See Figure 2 for wire-to-tooling cross-reference for crimping the wire barrel. The applicable wire size range is stamped on the

product package label. For information on using the tooling, refer to the instructions packaged with the tooling.
