The 687616-2 is a type of crimp applicator and press designed to provide an efficient, accurate and cost-effective means to connect electrical cable connectors. In the past, the majority of electrical connections were terminated with soldered/welded connections, but this method is labour intensive and slow, resulting in increased expenses and extended lead times. By using the 687616-2 crimp applicator and press, electrical connections can be made quickly and effectively, resulting in increased productivity and cost savings.

The 687616-2 is a versatile tool, allowing for a variety of crimping and pressing applications. It is suitable for crimping multiple wires at the same time, while the press can be used on a variety of contact sizes and types including banana plugs, spade connectors, ring terminals and lug-style connectors. This applicator and press can also be used to terminate pre-cut wire bundles, adding to its versatility.

The 687616-2 crimp applicator and press is designed to be both safe and easy to use. It features a spring loaded plunger that provides a constant force during crimping and pressing operations, ensuring consistently high-quality connections. Additionally, the applicator and press is equipped with an adjustable depth stop that allows the user to preset the desired crimping or pressing depth. This ensures that the user will not apply excessive pressure when making connections, which could potentially cause damage.

At the heart of the 687616-2 is a hardened steel press lever, which provides an even and consistent force when crimping and pressing electrical terminals. The leverage of this lever ensures that the connectors are securely and safely attached to the wire. The press lever is also adjustable, allowing the user to adjust the force applied when crimping and pressing connectors.

The 687616-2 is equipped with a variety of features that make it both user-friendly and efficient.
