Frequency of inspection depends on:
The dies are inspected before being shipped;
however, it is recommended that the dies be
inspected immediately upon arrival at your facility to
ensure that no damage occurred during shipment.
Due to the precision design, it is important that no
parts of these dies be interchanged except those
replacement parts listed in Section 5.
This inspection requires the use of a plug gage
conforming to the dimensions shown in Figure 4. To
gage the crimping chamber, refer to Figure 4, and
proceed as follows:
If dies conform to the gage inspection, they are
considered dimensionally correct. If not correct, refer
to Section 5, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR, for
information on obtaining customer repair service.
For additional information regarding the use of a plug
gage, refer to instruction sheet 408–7424.
1. The care, amount of use, and handling of the
dies.
2. The presence of abnormal amounts of dust and
dirt.
3. The degree of operator skill.
4. Your own established standards.
1. Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants
with a clean brush, or a soft, lint–free cloth. Do
NOT use objects that could damage the dies.
2. When the dies are not in use, store them in a
clean, dry area.
1. Remove accumulated dirt, grease, and foreign
matter by immersing the dies in a suitable
commercial degreaser.
2. Inspect die crimp area for worn, cracked, or
broken surfaces. If damage is evident, refer to
Section 5, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR, for
information on obtaining customer repair service.
1. Remove traces of oil or dirt from the crimping
chamber and plug gage.
2. Align the GO element with the crimping
chamber. Push element straight into the chamber
without using force. The GO element must pass
completely through the crimping chamber.
3. Check the crimping chamber with the NO–GO
element in the same manner as Step 2. The
NO–GO element may start entry, but must not
pass completely through the crimping chamber.
