Crimping Deustch DTS connectors
I have DT06-6S plug - along with correct pins & wedge lock.
I don't have a specific crimp tool for Deutsch connectors (only fitting 2 plugs) .. could a standard ratchet tool for insulated crimp lugs/eyelets be used .... or anybody a better suggestion ...... not sensible to buy to connect 4 pins. |

Though carefully to avoid solder outside the hole. -- Roger Hayter |

Concerned solder may prevent the end of plug sealing properly if it 'migrated' |

Concerned solder may prevent the end of plug sealing properly if it 'migrated' I'd have riisked it with a small narrow bit in a thermostatic solder station iron - but I do see the risk of disaster in a fraction of a second wiith a mm too much solder -- Roger Hayter |
