Use gauge pins or soft metal slug (solder) method to

measure the “X” dimension. Verify the tooling crimp height

calibration by referring to the Go/No Go dimensions shown

in the chart below.

SCOPE

Tooling: The Square “DIN” style die sets are used with two machines and each machine requires an adapter for

the square “DIN” dies. The Molex UP60, order number 63801-8900 will process the square “DIN” style

die sets with the 63801-8901 adapter. The Molex 12 ton battery crimp tool, order number 63816-1000

will process the square “DIN” style die sets with the 63816-1100 adapter. Refer to the appropriate

crimper instruction manual for installation and operation information.

Products: Metric Compression Lug Terminals and Splices 150mm² (300 MCM). Refer to the Product part

number charts on this sheet for terminals with the barrel and tongue styles listed above.

TESTING

The tensile test or pull test is a means of evaluating the mechanical properties of the crimped connections.

The following chart shows the UL specifications for the equivalent AWG wire size. The tensile strength is

shown in Newtons & (pounds) and indicates the minimum acceptable force to break or separate the terminal

from the conductor.
