Crimping Question
Posted: Sat Apr 22, 2017 1:56 pm
I am getting ready to crimp a large number of 'Dupont' and 'JSC' type terminal pins, used in 2.54 and 3.96 mm connectors. (Like Molex)
The AM-10 power crimper is going to be used so I am looking for a proper die. The Iwiss hand crimper I have works well, but unfortunately the dies are very similar but not interchangeable.
There are many sites that list dies for this machine but in spite of accumulating several dies, I still cannot locate the proper one for these terminals.
Many sell the AM-10 crimper, and some are under a different number, but they are all appear to be importers, with no hands on knowledge, and tech support is nil.
I could probably resort to doing some creative machining on the Iwiss die to make it work, but that would be at the cost of the hand crimping tool.
I am trying to get an Iwiss replacement die but so far that has also been a dead end.
Anyone been down this road with this problem, please shout out!
Thanks,
