Re: PO has me PO'd
I like to hold the pin in the crimpers with slight pressure, then insert stripped wire, it seems to give you better control and alignment of pin, so the crimp goes right. I also do a pre crimp of one letter size smaller, just enough to hold in place, then come back and do the final crimp for tightness
Don t forget to put your seal on the wire before crimping pin. That s where the second crimp comes in, i use a letter 'B' crimp for the seal and a letter 'E' for the pin, but your crimping tool may be differant
