Burndy W26VT Crimping Die

The Burndy W26VT is a single W-style crimping die set designed for electricians and line workers terminating copper lugs. It provides upper and lower dies in one piece for connectors coded black from 2 to 2/0 AWG. It is not suited for users who need multiple crimp sizes in one tool or who work with aluminium connectors.

Six-Ton Manual Operation

Rated for a maximum crimping force of six tons, the die set operates with compatible hand or battery tools without an external power source. The mechanical action produces minimal noise and no electrical draw during normal use. It does not suit applications requiring hydraulic pressure beyond the six-ton limit or powered pump systems.

MD6 and PAT600 Compatibility

The die fits Burndy MD6, MD7, PAT600, PATMD and Y500CTHS tool frames that accept W-style dies. Installation requires no adapters, freeing the tool for quick die changes on site. It is not compatible with tool series that use U-style or other proprietary die profiles.

Questions about this item

How do I install the W26VT die into my MD6 tool and what step is often missed?

Align the upper and lower W-style die halves with the tool head, seat them fully until they click, then verify the black colour code faces outward — the step most often missed is confirming the die is locked before crimping.

What maintenance or replacement will the W26VT crimping die need over time?

Inspect the die surfaces for wear or deformation after heavy use; replace the die if the crimp profile no longer matches the 2 to 2/0 AWG copper lug specification or if the black colour code becomes illegible.

What limit appears first when using the W26VT die continuously at its 6 ton maximum force?

The 6 ton maximum crimping force rating is the primary limit; sustained operation at this level will cause heat buildup in the die and tool head, requiring cool-down periods to maintain crimp quality.
