TE Connectivity SDE-SA Hand Crimp Tool Frame

SDE-SA commercial grade hand operated crimp tool frame for crimping a wide range of terminals and contacts. This SDE-SA commercial hand tool frame has a precision construction of durable high-carbon steel with extra strength pivot pins for long lasting performance. Commercial grade crimp tools use SDE (Standard Die Envelope) technology enabling the dies to be used in different types of tooling within the same SDE system including, battery, pneumatic and electric tools. There is no need to have separate dies fitted to each type of tool, saving time and costs. The SDE-SA crimp tool frame fits a large selection of crimp dies which can easily be interchanged. Commercial grade hand crimping tools incorporate features for long lasting performance and easy use. This SDE-SA crimp tool frame features an adjustable ratchet control which stays locked until the handles of the tool are fully closed and the dies are bottomed. This ratchet mechanism ensures that the tool only opens once a complete crimp cycle is achieved preventing partial crimps. An emergency ratchet release is available for opening the tool jaws at any time during the crimp cycle. The head of the SDE-SA hand crimping tool has a large crimp jaw arc which minimizes roll when crimping open barrel terminals. The handles have a reduced handle force and an ergonomic design reducing operator fatigue and making the tool easy and comfortable to use.
Die sets for this crimp tool frame need to be purchased separately.
