The 525651 is a double action Hand Tool for use with positive lock terminals. It is intended for occasional use and low volume applications. It features two crimping jaws, each consisting of an anvil and a crimper. When closed, the jaws form two crimping chambers, each marked on the back side of the tool with the letters A and B. The CERTI-CRIMP ratchet ensures full crimping of the terminal. Once engaged, the ratchet will not release until the tool handles have been fully closed.
Open barrel - F crimp
Crimping jaws bottom before the CERTI-CRIMP ratchet releases. This is a design feature that ensures maximum electrical and tensile performance of the crimp. Do not re-adjust the ratchet.
