Burndy UD3 U-Style Crimping Die
The Burndy UD3 is a U-style crimping die set designed for electricians and utility technicians who terminate aluminium or copper lugs from 2/0 AWG up to 300 kcmil. It delivers a maximum crimping force of 12 tons and uses a blue connector colour code for quick identification. The die set is compatible with Burndy crimper hand and power tools across the Y35, Y39, Y45, Y46 and Y750 series.
For 12-ton tool owners terminating large lugs
This die set suits professionals who already operate 12-ton Burndy crimpers and need to cover the 2/0 AWG to 300 kcmil range. It is not for users of smaller-force tools or those working exclusively with wire sizes outside this capacity. Buyers requiring different connector colour codes or die styles should look at other options.
Fits Y-series crimpers, clears lug inventory
The UD3 drops directly into Y35, Y39, Y45, Y46 and Y750 crimpers without adapters, letting crews standardise on one die for both aluminium and copper lugs up to 300 kcmil. It eliminates the need to swap dies when switching conductor materials and frees up tool capacity for other connector sizes.

Questions about this item
Which crimping tool series must I already own to use the UD3 die?
The UD3 die fits Burndy Y35, Y39, Y45, Y46 and Y750 series crimping tools.
Will the UD3 die still crimp correctly if I keep using an older Y35 hand tool?
Yes, the UD3 die is compatible with the Y35 series, so an older Y35 hand tool will crimp 2/0 AWG to 300 kcmil lugs at up to 12 tons.
How can I confirm the UD3 die is crimping to spec after setup?
Check that the crimped lug shows the blue colour code and that the tool reaches its full 12-ton force without slipping.
