Overview

A machined-contact crimping tool for wire termination inside industrial connectors, with selection focused on contact family, locator and crimp position.

Explore tools for machined industrial contacts, separating the housing, contact and positioning accessory in the selection process.

Features & working characteristics

Contact-first selection

Start with the internal contact rather than the connector housing and identify its termination area.

Locator matching

Include the positioning accessory when documenting the tool, contact and conductor relationship.

Connected selection information

The model, connection part and application criteria sit in a shared reference linked to application pages and technical articles.

A closer look

Terminating machined contacts

LH-H04 selection concerns the wire barrel of a machined contact. Establish part numbers and locating conditions separately for pins and sockets; a shared connector family does not imply the same setup. Form the specified barrel region without affecting the mating surface, shoulder or retention feature.

Locating and forming are separate controls

Associate tool, locator and contact

A reusable process record includes contact, wire, locator and tool setting. On a contact change, verify the locator first, then review crimp position and result. Interpret adjustment numbers only within the relevant tool-and-contact instructions rather than as universal wire sizes.

Symptoms and diagnostic directions

Observation	Check first
Contact will not enter its cavity	Contact identity, orientation, deformation location and retention features
Indent position varies	Locator match, seating and movement during operation

From terminated contact to assembled interface

After crimping, follow the pinout and confirm retention in the correct cavity. Complete seals, shielding and strain relief according to the connector instructions. Use the tool information with the assembly documentation so one crimp step is not mistaken for interface acceptance.

CARE & ORGANIZATION

Care & storage

01
Keep working surfaces and connection parts clean; check for visible damage, looseness and unusual wear before use.
02
Follow the tool and matched connection-part documentation for use, maintenance and adjustment.
03
Store away from moisture and impact, keeping accessories and model references with the tool.
