Posted: Fri Jan 21, 2011 11:01 am Post subject: D-sub crimper

I have a supply of gold-plated D-sub pins and a ratchet crimper -- both pins and crimper were purchased from B&C.  I will be using 20 ga and 22 ga wiring in my aircraft, but note that there is no adjustment on the crimper for different wire gauges.  I saw in an EAA informational video the use of a D-sub crimper that had an adjustment to adapt it to different wire gauges.  Do I need one of these adjustable crimpers?  If I use the one from B&C and give each pin a pull test after crimping, is that good enough?

 

Thanks,

Paul Kuntz

   The B&C crimper (mfg by Eclipse) has been

   on the market now for 10 years that I know

   of. It has performed well with 20 and 22AWG

   wire in d-sub pins.
