Crimping, a process used for attaching a terminal or connector to a wire, is no easy task. To ensure that the connection is secure, reliable and free from risk of short-circuiting, crimpers must be employed. Crimpers come in various sizes and shapes, but the most commonly used is the 2-318088-8 model.

The 2-318088-8 is a pressure-actuated, manually operated crimping tool. It is designed to accommodate a wide range of dies and so can be used on a variety of connections, ranging from the standard flat and postal terminals, to specialized connectors and insulated terminals. It features an ergonomic handle that has been crafted for comfort and ease of use. The tool also has an adjustable pressure linkage mechanism, as well as a self-compensating distribution block that allows for even application of pressure.

Before use, the appropriate die needs to be attached to the 2-318088-8. The die is PTFE-coated, which ensures smooth sliding of the terminals and connectors through the jaws, thereby eliminating any risk of pinching. Once the die is attached, the user then needs to choose the size of the terminals they wish to crimp. Different dies are required for different terminal sizes.

The next step is to feed the terminal or connector into the jaws of the 2-318088-8 and then close the jaws. This is followed by the application of pressure. To reduce the effort required to activate the tool, the jaws will begin to close automtaically when the pressure is applied. Once the set pressure is achieved, the tool will remain closed, ensuring secure crimping.

The working of the 2-318088-8 is best exemplified by its application in the field. It has been used extensively in the automotive and aerospace industries, where it is relied upon to make secure electrical connections for a variety of applications. Its size makes it suitable for connecting wires and cables in tight spaces, and its easy-to-operate functions make this a tool of choice when accuracy and reliability are required.

The 2-318088-8 is also used for a variety of tasks in the electrical and electronics industries, such as the secure attachment of insulation sleeve to wires and the crimping of wires onto resistors and transformers. Its adjustable pressure linkage mechanism and PTFE-coated die ensure that all connections are made with the utmost precision and security.

In summary, the 2-318088-8 is a manually operated, pressure-actuated crimping tool that is designed to accommodate a wide range of dies for crimping nearly any type of connection. With its adjustable mechanical linkage and PTFE-coated die, it is ideal for use in the automotive, aerospace and electrical/electronics industries, where secure connections and accuracy are of paramount importance.
