Astro’s line of Pneumatic Crimp Tools is designed for moderate volume production. These tools are available for a wide range of contact sizes, from 8 through 26 and wire sizes 8 through 30 AWG.

* Externally Adjusted *
612141

The externally adjustable tool is designed to accept MS3191-4 and M22520/1 style turret head assemblies. The tool has a micrometer style adjustment knob which allows it to be adjusted and set to crimp depths ranging from .015 to .085 inches in increments of .001. The dial indicator on this tool has three sets of numbers. One set indicates crimp depth in thousands of an inch. One set corresponds to the selector knob settings on the M22520/1-01 (615708) tool. The third set corresponds to the selector settings on the MS3191-4 (612179) tool. These multi-selector readings allow the tool to be used easily with the data for crimp settings located on all Mil-Spec turrets. In its turret-operated configuration these tools crimp contact sizes 12 through 26 and wire sizes 12 through 30 AWG. This tool can be adapted for use with locators by ordering the 615161 slide strap adaptor assembly. A tool with a mini top indenter is available under part number 615250.

* Internally Adjusted *
612871

This line of crimp tools is designed for adjustments by qualified personnel only. This tool features an adjustment knob located inside the front cover plate of the tools. Once set by qualified personnel, the tool is not adjustable by the assembly line operator, thus helping to eliminate operator error. The tool operates with replaceable, single position locators. When using these locators, the tools will crimp wire sizes 8 through 30. The internally adjusted tools can be adapted to accept the MS3191-4 and M22520/1 turrets by ordering a 620754 turret adaptor assembly.

• 3212 (20 GA.)
• 3213 (16 GA.)
• 3214 (12 GA.)

Both tools can be either hand held or mounted on an optional bench mount and foot pedal assembly (part number 11380-3). Using this assembly leaves the operator’s hands free for inserting and removing contacts and wire.

These tools operate on 80-120 P.S.I. Astro recommends a filtered, regulated and lubricated air supply for optional performance. Astro offer the 11413 air regulator for this purpose.
