2. DESCRIPTION
Each die assembly consists of two stationary dies
(anvils) and two moving dies (crimpers) which when
closed form the crimping chamber. The stationary dies
feature a die holding screw and have the die assembly
part number marking. The moving dies also feature a
die holding screw and have the die assembly part
number, specific wire size, and terminal type
markings. See Figure 1.
The translucent color of the insulation on the terminal
indicates a specific wire range and must match the
wire size marking on the die assembly for crimping.
Refer to Figure 2.
