Default How to use crimping tool


"Alex" wrote in message

Guys,

when you use crimping tools does it matter which side of connector goes
under tooth of crimping tool? The part where two ends of connectors "neck"
tube meet or other side?

BTW I have a stripping/crimping tool like this one:

Thanks,

The tooth of the crimper should press the split side of the connector!
If you use it the other way there's a possibility you may separate the
connecting section into a "Y" shape.
