The 1285002-2 is a bottoming die component used in crimp tooling systems to guarantee proper crimp force application during wire and terminal crimping operations. This component is designed to work within a handle force range of 40 to 47 lbs, with a crimp height specification between 38.18 and 498 units, ensuring consistent compression and reduction of the cross-sectional area of both wire and terminal. The tooling is certified for use with specific gage pins and requires recertification every 8 months or 1,000 cycles to maintain long-term consistency and confirm proper tensile strength, mechanical stability, and electrical conductivity. This bottoming die is essential for maintaining repeatability in crimping production and is commonly used in wire processing and terminal assembly applications where reliable electrical connections are critical.
