Burndy U Die Kit for Aluminum

This Burndy U Die Kit is designed for crimping aluminum conductors ranging from 6 AWG up to 750 kcmil. It serves electricians and technicians who need reliable compression connections on large-gauge aluminum wire. The kit provides the dies required to match specific conductor sizes within that range.

Installation and common issues

The dies install into compatible Burndy crimping tools by aligning the die grooves with the tool jaws and securing them according to the tool manufacturer's procedure. A frequent problem is selecting the wrong die groove for the conductor size, which produces an under-crimped or over-crimped joint. Another issue arises when dies are used on copper conductors instead of the intended aluminum application.

Conductor range 6 AWG to 750 kcmil

The single specification that determines whether this kit fits the job is the conductor range of 6 AWG to 750 kcmil for aluminum wire. If the project involves conductors outside this range, or requires copper crimping dies, this set will not cover the work. Verify the exact conductor size and material before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the die set is crimping aluminum conductors correctly after setup?

Perform test crimps on scrap aluminum wire within the 6 AWG to 750 Kcmil range and inspect each for proper indent depth, no cracking, and a secure mechanical hold before starting live work.

What comes in the kit and what must I supply separately?

The kit supplies the U-die set for aluminum sizes 6 AWG through 750 Kcmil; you must provide a compatible Burndy crimping tool and the aluminum conductors you intend to terminate.

Which capacity should I choose for aluminum cables up to 750 Kcmil?

This single kit covers the full aluminum range from 6 AWG up to 750 Kcmil, so no additional capacity selection is required.
