connections. The following charts show the UL specifications for various wire sizes. The tensile

strength is shown in pounds and indicates the minimum acceptable force to break or separate the

terminal from the conductor.

OPERATION

Refer to the instruction manual for the 19279-0001 (AT200) for

mounting this crimp tool head.

Wire Preparation

For stranded wire, strip leads to approximately 7/8”. Twist the wire combination even and tight.

Trim stripped pre-twisted area to 1/2” of an inch and insert into connector and crimp. For more

information, follow the Quality Crimping Handbook.

Crimping Terminals

1. Hold the airhead crimp tool with the locator facing up. Insert the closed-end connector in the

slot (8). Make sure the shoulder of the connector is resting on the locator plate. See Figure 1.

2. Place the pre-twisted wire into the closed-end connector, and then press the lever on the air

tool. See Figures 2 and 3. Release the lever after jaws have closed.

Note: The tamper-proof ratchet action will not release the tool until it has been fully closed.

Caution: Never operate this tool without the supplied safety shield in place. Never place fingers in

the tool nest.

Note: Whenever crimping without the locator, make sure the seam of the terminal is oriented up

or down in the tool if using unbrazed product because this will provide higher pull force values.

3. Remove the crimp and inspect for

proper crimp location, and check for

insulation closure. Molex offers a

Crimp Inspection Handbook for closed

barrel industrial product.

MAINTENANCE

It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of and responsible for the

following maintenance steps:

1. Remove dust, moisture and other contaminants with a

clean brush or a soft, lint-free cloth.

2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage

the tool.

3. Make certain all pins, pivot points and bearing surfaces

are protected with a thin coat of high-quality machine

oil. Do not oil excessively. This tool was engineered for

durability, but like any fine piece of equipment, it needs

cleaning and lubrication for a maximum service life of

trouble-free crimping. Using a light oil such as 30

weight automotive oil at the oil points shown in Figure 4

every 5,000 crimps or monthly will significantly enhance

the tool life and ensure a stable calibration.

4. When the tool is not in use, store the tool in a clean, dry area.

Tool Calibration

A Certificate of Calibration (see last page) was supplied with the tool. To recalibrate this tool, pin

gauge measurements should be taken in each conductor nest and compared to this chart. The tool

should be lubricated prior to recalibration to ensure consistent measurements.

Warranty

This tool is for electrical terminal crimping purposes only. This tool is made of the best quality

materials. All vital components are long-life tested. All tools are warranted to be free of

manufacturing defects for a period of 30 days. Should such a defect occur, Molex would repair or

exchange the tool free of charge. This repair or exchange will not be applicable to altered, misused

or damaged tools.

CAUTION: Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals, applicators

and tooling.
