The DMC AF8 can be easily mated to a military or non-military turret head, positioner, or adjustable head. Once mated, this Upper Range Crimp Tool can be adjusted to match the diameter of the connector and wires desired. Because of this, connectors size 12 AWG to 26 AWG can be crimped correctly and precisely to wires for a professional and consistent connection. This causes a variety of applications to be available. Depending on the attachment use and adjustments made, this crimp tool can be used on commercial installations, home maintenance, laboratory work, and heavy duty military or aerospace applications. Almost anything that requires electrical wiring or connection systems, such as the Deutsch connectors line of products, can use the AF8 for their assemblies and ends.
