Crimping die for 1 AWG aluminium and 2/0 AWG copper

This Thomas & Betts 15526 die handles aluminium lugs at 1 AWG and copper lugs at 2/0 AWG with a 14 ton maximum crimping force. The black 45 and gold 45 colour code identifies the correct die for each connector. It works with both hand and hydraulic crimping tools.

Electricians and contractors needing those exact

The die suits professionals terminating 1 AWG aluminium or 2/0 AWG copper lugs in commercial and industrial installations. It is not for installers working with smaller gauge wire, larger conductors or different connector colour codes.

14 ton crimping force

The 14 ton rating determines whether your crimping tool can drive this die, while the black 45 gold 45 marking confirms connector compatibility. Match both values to your tool and lug specifications before purchase.
