3. CRIMP INSPECTION

Inspect crimped terminals and splices by checking the

features described in Figure 7. Use only the terminals

and splices that meed the conditions shown in the

“ACCEPT” column. “REJECT” terminals and splices

can be avoided through careful use of instructions in

Section 2, INSTRUCTIONS, and by performing

regular die maintenance as instructed in Section 4,

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION PROCEDURES.

Figure 7

REJECT

Crimps centered. Crimps may be off center, BUT NOT

OFF END OF WIRE BARREL.

AWG wire size being used matches wire size

stamped on terminal or splice and crimping dies.

Wire insulation does not enter wire barrel.

Wire is visible through inspection hole or butt splices.

Wire is flush with or extends slightly beyond end of

terminal wire barrel.

On parallel splices, bare wire ends must be flush with

or extend slightly beyond end of barrel.

Crimped off end of splice or terminal wire barrel.

AWG wire size being used does not match wire size

stamped on terminal or splice crimping dies.

Wire insulation entered barrel of terminal or splice.

CHECK FOR INCORRECT STRIP LENGTH.

Wire not inserted far enough in terminal or splice. End

of wire must be visible through inspection hole of butt

splices, and be flush with or extend slightly beyond

end of terminal wire barrel or parallel splice.

Excessive “flash” on terminal or splice indicates wrong

combination of wire, terminal, splice, or tooling.

Nicked or missing conductor strands.
