Crimping Die Assemblies 58268-1 and 58268-2 are

designed for use in the AUTO-PRO* Machine

818380-1 equipped with Applicator 818058-2. Each

die assembly, when installed in the machine, will crimp

Ultra-Fast Plus Fully Insulated FASTON* Terminals

520401-[ ] onto wire sizes No. 22-18 AWG (die

assembly -1) and terminals 520402-[ ] onto wire sizes

No. 16-14 AWG (die assembly -2).

These instructions provide specific information

regarding the die assemblies and applicable terminals.

For general performance of the machine, refer to 408-

2. DESCRIPTION

Each die assembly consists of two stationary dies

(anvils) and two moving dies (crimpers) which when

closed form the crimping chamber. The stationary dies

feature a die holding screw and have the die assembly

part number marking. The moving dies also feature a

die holding screw and have the die assembly part

number, specific wire size, and terminal type

markings. See Figure 1.

The translucent color of the insulation on the terminal

indicates a specific wire range and must match the

wire size marking on the die assembly for crimping.

Refer to Figure 2.
