2-2151860-1

Crimpers, Applicators, and Presses all have a wide range of uses in both industrial and commercial applications. Whether manual or automated, these tools are perfect for the fast and efficient application of wires, cables, and other electrical components. The 2-2151860-1 applicator is designed for use with copper and aluminum terminal, splice, braze and connect terminals with a single quick action.

Design and Materials

The 2-2151860-1 applicator is designed to be used with standard copper and aluminum terminals and splices up to 2 AWG. It consists of a two-part housing, die holder and base plate made of steel with a chrome finish, and a die holder with reversible jaws for crimping. The die holder has a knurled thumb wheel for adjusting the gap between the jaw edges to accommodate the size of the terminal or splice being installed. The base plate is coated with a non-slip rubbery finish to ensure a secure grip when in use. The applicator also comes with a set of dies that are interchangeably mounted into the die holder.

Application Fields

The 2-2151860-1 applicator is ideal for a variety of applications, including general wiring, electrical installations, and manufacturing. This type of tool is perfect for making connections with a wide range of wire and cable sizes, including single conductor wire, multi-conductor cable, and multiple conductor flat cable. It is also well suited for connection and installation of brass, copper, and aluminum terminals and insulation. It can even be used for waterproofing connections, terminal blocks, distribution boxes, junction boxes, and other enclosure devices.

Working Principle

The 2-2151860-1 applicator works on the principle of crimping and forming the terminal or splice in one quick action. The crimping result is secured by the adjustable gap of the reversible jaw. First, the die is set onto the die holder by the user, and it is adjusted to the size of the terminal or splice by turning the knurled thumb wheel. Then the terminal or splice is inserted into the die and the handle of the applicator is pressed down to crimp it.

When properly crimped, the reliability and performance of a connection is significantly increased. This type of applicator is designed to work with all types of terminals, splices, and wires for instant and secure connections. It is both fast and effective, saving considerable time and money when used in the right application.
