510338-2

510338-2 applicators are designed for manual crimping applications. They make use of crimping tools to secure conductors or cables in place, usually with the help of some kind of clamping force. This increases the integrity of the connection and makes it more reliable. The applicators are used in a variety of industries such as electronics, instrumentation, and telecommunications.

Components

510338-2 applicators consist of two main parts—the applicator head and the tool. The head contains the components necessary to crimp the conductor or cable, such as the die, collet, and the handles. The tool is used to activate the head by applying a certain amount of force to the conductor or cable, thus crimping it in place.

Operation

To operate the applicator, the conductor or cable is clamped into the head. The handles of the applicator are then lifted, depressing the collet which compresses the conductor or cable into the die. At this point, a certain amount of force is applied to the conductor or cable, depending on the specific application. Once the crimping is complete, the handles can be released, and the collet withdrawn to release the conductor or cable. The amount of force applied is usually adjusted by adjusting the pressure of the handles through a knurled nut.

Advantages

510338-2 applicators offer several advantages. They are easy to use and adjust, making them ideal for crimping various types of conductors or cables. They are also adjustable, allowing for a range of crimps depending on the specific application. Finally, they are typically very durable, allowing for long-term use for even the toughest applications.

Conclusion

510338-2 applicators are designed for manual crimping applications, offering a number of advantages. They are easy to use, adjustable, and can handle a range of crimps depending on the application. They are also usually very durable, allowing for long-term usage in tough crimping applications.
