The PRO--CRIMPER III Hand Crimping Tool Assembly is a “Commercial”

grade tool and is designed primarily for field installation, repair, maintenance

work, or prototyping in industrial, commercial, or institutional applications.

Product crimped with this tool will meet the crimp height requirement for hand

tools in the appropriate 1 14 series specification, but may not comply with other

feature parameters of the specification. T yc o Electronics offers a variety of

tools to satisfy your performance requirements. For additional information,

1. INTRODUCTION

PR O--CRIMPER III Hand Crimping Tool 58433--2 is

designed to crimp 50--Ohm Commercial BNC and

TNC Hex Crimp Plugs and Jacks onto RG 58/U, RG

59/U, and RG 62/U cable. Refer to Figure 1.

Dimensions on this sheet are in millimeters [with

inch equivalents provided in brackets]. Figures

are for reference only, and are not drawn to scale.

Reasons for reissue of this sheet are provided in

Section 6, R EVISION SUMMARY.

2. DESCRIPTION (Figure 1)

The tool features a die assembly with two ferrule

crimp sections and one center contact crimp section.

The ferrule crimp sections are identified by their

applicable cable size marki ngs (.213 and .255) above

them.

The center contact crimp section, identifiable as the

smallest of the three crimp sections, is marked .068.

3. CRIMPING PROCEDURE (Figure 2 and Figure 3 )

3.1. Center Contact

1. Slide the ferrule onto the cable, then strip the

cable according to the dimensions in the

appropriate connector instruction sheet.

NOTE: Contacts with

Portion Must Have Flange

Butted Against Dies.

Center the crimping area of the contact in the

dies. See Figure2 . If contacts have a flange on

the crimping portion, butt the flange against dies

(Figure 3).

2. Slide the center contact onto the center

conductor of the cable; then insert the contact

assembly into the center contact crimp section of

the dies.

3. Crimp the center contact by holding the cable in

place; then close the tool handles until the ratchet

releases.

4. Remove the crimped center contact assembly

from the crimping die.

3.2. Ferrule

1. Insert the crimped center contact into the

connector body until the cable dielectric butts

against the dielectric insi de the connector body.

The flared braid will then fit around the support

sleeve of the connector body.

2. Slide the ferrule forward over the braid until the

ferrule butts against the shoulder on the connector

body.

3. Place the ferrule on the appropriate anvil of the

die assembly so that the shoulder on the connector

body butts against the die. See Figure 4.

4. Hol ding the assembly in place, close the tool

handles until the ratchet releases.

5. Remove the crimped assembly from the

crimping die.

4. INSPECTION

4.1. Visual Inspection

Inspection of the crimping dies should be made on a

regular basis to ensure that they have not become

worn or damaged. Inspect the crimp sections for

flattened, chipped, worn, or broken areas. If damage

or abnormal wear is evident, the dies must be

replaced. Refer to Section 5, PARTS

REPLACEMENT.

4.2. Measuring Die Opening

The die assembly will perform correctly as long as:

(1) the product specified is correct for the application,

(2) the specific die assembly is used, (3) the die

assembly has been measured to ensure that the

openings are correct, and (4) the tool has been

adjusted correctly.

Figure 5 provides information on die opening sizes.

4.3. Ratchet Adjustment (Figure 6)

The ratchet mechanism features an adjustment wheel

with eight settings. The adjustment wheel controls the

amount of handle pressure exerted on the tool jaw s

and crimping dies during crimping. If the crimp is not

acceptable, adjust the ratchet as foll ows:

1. Sufficiently loosen the screw at the ratchet

adjustment wheel so that the wheel can be rotated

above the post that engages the teeth in the wheel.

2. If the crimp is too loose, turn the wheel to a

higher notch (for example, if the wheel is set at

notch no. 5, move the wheel to notch no. 6). If the

crimp is too tight, move the wheel to a lower notch

3. Tighten the screw at the ratchet adjustment

wheel.

If the crimp cannot be made to conform to the

dimensions provided in the appropriate product

application specification, the tool and/or dies are

defective and must be replaced.

Other dies of the PRO--CRIMPER III series may

be used in this tool; however, the r atchet

adjustment wheel may require adjustment to

achieve acceptable crimp height.

5. PARTS REPLACEMENT

Customer--replaceable parts are shown in Figure 1.

Available separately, PRO--C RIMPER III Hand

Crimping Tool Repai r Kit 679221--1 includes a

replacement nut and a variety of pins, rings, screws,

and springs.

If the dies are damaged or worn excessivel y, they

must be replaced.
