The AFM8 meets the need for a miniature hand tool accommodating wire sizes 20 through 32 AWG. The AFM8 gives a Mil-Standard 8 impression crimp, which assures maximum tensile strength. The cycle-controlled precision ratchet assures consistently accurate crimps every time. The tool frame has a built-in 8 step selector knob for ease in dialing the correct crimp depth setting for the wire being used. Positioners adapt the tool frame to a particular application. The data plate on each positioner designates which contacts the positioner accommodates for its wire size and indicates selector position. The positioner is easily removed and changed. Periodic gaging is recommended to ensure accurate calibration. This is easily accomplished with the M22520/3-1 “GO/NO-GO” gage (DMC part no. G125) on SEL setting #8. The AFM8 is 6 3/4″ in length and weighs approximately 10 oz. Other than keeping the tool clean and properly stored when not in use, no operator maintenance is required.
