1. INTRODUCTION

PRO--CRIMPER III Hand Crimping Tool 58433--1

(Figure 1) is designed to crimp 50--Ohm Commercial

BNC and TNC plugs and jacks onto RG 58/U, RG

59/U, and RG 62/U cable.

Reasons for reissue of this sheet are provided in

Section 6, REVISION SUMMARY.

2. DESCRIPTION (Figure 1)

The tool features a replaceable die assembly

(58435--1) with two ferrule crimp sections and two

center contact crimp sections. The crimp sections are

marked to identify the cable sizes used with the

connectors as follows:

SRG 58/U crimp sections (center contact and

ferrule) are identified by the number “58”

located below the crimp section.

SRG 59/U and 62/U crimp sections (center

contact and ferrule) are identified by the

number “59” located below the crimp section.

3. CRIMPING PROCEDURE (Figure 2)

3.1. Center Contact

1. Slide the ferrule onto the cable, then strip the

cable according to the dimensions in the

appropriate connector instruction sheet.

2. Slide the center contact onto the center

conductor of the cable; then insert the contact

assembly into the contact crimp section of the dies.

Make sure that the flange on the end of the

center contact butts against the crimping die. See

Figure 3.

3. Crimp the center contact by holding the contact

and cable in place; then close the tool handles until

the ratchet releases.

4. Remove the crimped center contact.

3.2. Ferrule

1. Insert the crimped center contact into the

connector body until the cable dielectric butts

against the dielectric inside the connector body.

The flared braid will then fit around the support

sleeve of the connector body.

2. Slide the ferrule forward over the braid until the

ferrule butts against the shoulder on the connector

body.

3. Place the ferrule on the approriate anvil of the

die assembly so that the shoulder on the connector

body butts against the die. See Figure 4.

4. Holding the assembly in place, close the tool

handles until the ratchet releases.

5. Remove the crimped assembly.

4. INSPECTION

4.1. Visual Inspection

Inspection of the crimping dies should be made on a

regular basis to ensure that they have not become

worn or damaged. Inspect the crimp sections for

flattened, chipped, worn, or broken areas. If damage

or abnormal wear is evident, the dies must be

replaced. Refer to Section 5, PARTS

REPLACEMENT.

4.2. Measuring Die Opening

The die assembly will perform correctly as long as:

a. the product specified is correct for the

application,

b. the specific die assembly is used,

c. the die assembly has been measured to

ensure that the openings are correct, and

d. the tool has been adjusted correctly.

Figure 5 provides information on die opening sizes.

4.3. Ratchet Adjustment

The ratchet mechanism features an adjustment wheel

with eight settings. The adjustment wheel controls the

amount of handle pressure exerted on the tool jaws

and crimping dies during crimping. If the crimp is not

acceptable, adjust the ratchet as follows:

1. Sufficiently loosen the screw at the ratchet

adjustment wheel so that the wheel can be rotated

above the post that engages the teeth in the wheel.

2. If the crimp is too loose, turn the wheel to a

higher notch (for example, if the wheel is set at

notch no. 5, move the wheel to notch no. 6). If the

crimp is too tight, move the wheel to a lower notch.

3. Tighten the screw at the ratchet adjustment

wheel.

If the crimp cannot be made to conform to the

dimensions provided in the appropriate product

application specification, the tool and/or dies are

defective and must be replaced.

Other dies of the PRO--CRIMPER III Series Hand

Criming Tool may be used in this tool; however,

the ratchet adjustment wheel may require

adjustment to achieve acceptable crimp height.

5. PARTS REPLACEMENT

Customer--replaceable parts are shown in Figure 1.

Available separately, PRO--CRIMPER III Repair Kit

679221--1 includes a variety of pins, rings, screws,

and springs. If the dies are damaged or worn

excessively, they must be replaced. Order the repair

kit and replaceable parts through your TE
