A. Wire Barrel Crimp Die Closure

1. Clean oil or dirt from the die closure surfaces,

bottoming surfaces, and plug gage elements.

2. Assemble dies so that wire barrel dies are

bottomed but not under pressure.

3. With wire barrel dies bottomed, inspect the wire

barrel crimp die closure using the proper plug gage.

Hold gage in straight alignment with the die closure

and carefully insert, without forcing, the GO

element. See Figure 6A. The GO element must

pass completely through the wire barrel crimp die

closure.

4. Try to insert the NO-GO element. The NO-GO

element may enter partially, but must not pass

completely through the wire barrel crimp die

closure. See Figure 6A.

B. Insulation Crimp Die Closure

1. With wire barrel dies bottomed and not under

pressure, set insulation crimp dies at “gage”

dimension shown in Figure 6B.

2. Inspect the insulation crimp die closure using the

proper plug gage in the same manner as steps (c)

and (d) in paragraph 4.3.A. See Figure 6B.

If both the wire barrel and insulation crimp die

closures meet the GO NO-GO gage conditions, the

dies may be considered dimensionally correct.
