We recommend using a die removal tool to remove dies from the HX4 and HX3. Here is the link: dmctools.com/hx3-82. However, if you didn't install the correct type of die into the tool we recommend that you send the tool in for repair. Find our repair information here: dmctools.com/resources/calibration-repair
Hi , my wa23 is stuck in the middle of crimping due to bad insertion of the pin. Cant find any reset button and would like help. Any help is appreciated.
I just received three used but useful installation and remover tools today from Daniel’s company. Thanks for this video. I’ll be building my collection slowly but surely.
Cool, very similar to a metal banding tool, but easier and better. As it's a friction locking tool, any issues with environments where lubricants and other substances may contaminate the strip during assembly?
Hi Gordo, LaceLok is resistant to hydraulic fluid, lubricating oil, and fuel. It is rated for operation in extreme temperatures -65°C to 260°C. To learn more about LaceLok and its superior performance check out our website dmctools.com/products/lacelok
@@DMCTOOLS Thank you for the prompt reply. I understood that from your video, and from checking your site out for details I understand there's a mechanical 'lock', but what I had in mind was, for example, if a hydraulic hose had failed and during the replacement process everything was wet from the fluid, including the tool and the ties. How resistant are they to being compromised, and failing, under such conditions? You do have some very, very cool tools that would have been very useful back in the day - if god's willing and the river don't rise, I might yet be able to buy them for myself, in retirement.
@@gordowg1wg145 LaceLok is approved for use as a secondary wiring support device for aerospace vehicles under AS50881H. It meets The U.S. Military's design and performance specifications MIL-DTL-32554 and MIL-DTL-32555. LaceLok is made of non-abrasive aerospace-grade meta-aramid fiber lace. The fastener is made of an ultra-high temperature thermoplastic (PEEK). It is resistant to common chemicals including hydraulic fluid, JP-8 jet fuel, lubricating oil, and isopropyl alcohol. LaceLok outperforms traditional methods designed for secondary wire harness support. You may find it useful to read the tool's datasheet dmctools.com/amfile/file/download/file/10240/product/4232/ or brochure dmctools.com/amfile/file/download/file/10243/is_resource_library/1/
Hi Gordo! Yes, Safe-T-Cable is designed to prevent bolts, nuts, and other fasteners from loosening in environments with excessive heat and vibration. When compared to lock-wire, Safe-T-Cable provides superior fastener retention making it much more resistant to vibration fatigue failure, as you described. Thanks for highlighting that feature!
Hi Mario! Unfortunately, a piece of contact stuck inside a plunger-style tool like the DRK171 couldn't be removed without damaging the tip of the tool.
This tool is sold calibrated. You can choose to add a calibration with reading. Specific dies used with this tool also offer gages that allow the operator to check calibration in the field.
I think you may have missed a trick there - unless you have a different product line for it - as if it was designed to work with a quick release desk-top cradle, and a foot operated pnuematic switch, it would be great for those who were preparing the ECU/PDU ends of looms, or doing final terminations off the vehicle.
The AFM8 should not be used without a positioner. Positioners adapt the tool frame to a particular application. To learn more about the AFM8 visit our website here dmctools.com/afm8

Most of our tools have a positive ratchet that requires a complete crimp to open again. This is a mil-spec requirement to prevent partial or incomplete crimps that could lead to electrical failure.
Despite the age on this video, we've found many still view and enjoy the content so we've left it on RU-vid. We're glad it was helpful. Please check out our newer content by visiting our channel.
This crimp tool is used to create a 4 indent crimp on machined contacts. This is a common style of crimp especially in high-reliability applications like aerospace, defense, automotive, rail and more...
Haha! It's a common misconception... The appropriate amount of tension needed is determined by the diameter of Safe-T-Cable being used. This is labeled nicely on the torque verification equipment that can be found here. dmctools.com/products/safe-t-cable/testing-equipment
Please help me I need the part number of removal tool to the conector serie PT00SE-12-10S(027) Also I have a another question When I remove the terminal from the connector is this damaged ?
@@jensvanhoof it acts as a lubricant and doesn't grab or tear the rubber of the electrical connector (cannon plug). Being that it's alcohol, it evaporates extremely quick. We use it every time we pin connectors.
