Note:
A crimp height chart is provided with this manual as Reference Only. Due to the wide range of wires, strands,
insulation diameters, and durometers available, actual crimp height measurements may very slightly. An
occasional, destructive, pull force test should be preformed to check hand tool crimp. Pull Force value Must exceed
the Minimum pull force specifications listed.
