FEATURES
 Quick-chan e tool head for the 19279-0001 (AT-200)
 A precision user-friendly terminal locator stop holds terminals in the proper crimpin position
SCOPE
Products: Nylon closed end connectors 12–22 AWG. This tool head is intended for use in the 19279-0001 (AT-200)
either hand held or with optional bench adapter 19078-0307 (ATBA) and foot switch.
Testing
Mechanical
The tensile test or pull test is a means of evaluatin the mechanical properties of the crimped connections. The
followin charts show the UL specifications for various wire sizes. The tensile stren th is shown in pounds and
indicates the minimum acceptable force to break or separate terminal from the conductor. On this style product,
only the readin from the smallest wire AWG is used. See Chart 1

OPERATION
Refer to the instruction manual for the 19279-0001 (AT200) for
mountin this crimp tool head.
Wire Preparation
Pre-twisted wire not required for OEM applications. For Solid (OEM only) strip leads to 3/8 of an inch. Insert into
connector and crimp.
For stranded wire strip leads to approximately 3/4 of an inch. Twist the wire combination even and ti ht. Trim
stripped pre-twisted area to 3/8 of an inch and insert into connector and crimp. For more information follow the
Quality Crimpin Handbook.

Crimping Terminals
1. Hold air crimp tool with the locator as shown in Fi ure 1.
Insert the closed end connector in the locator slot. Make
sure that the shoulder of the connector is restin on the
locator plate. The connector should fit snu ly into the jaws
of the crimp tool. See Fi ure 1.
2. If necessary, adjust the jaws of the tool in the open position
so that the connector does not move or fall out of the jaws.
Usin a 3/32” Allen wrench turn the adjustin screw in the
adjustment block clockwise (CW) to close the jaws. Turn
the adjustin screw counterclockwise (CCW) to open the
jaws. See Fi ure 2.
3. Place pre-twisted wire into closed-end connector. Than
press lever (tri er) on air tool. See Fi ure 3. Release the
lever after jaws have fully closed
Caution: Never place fin ers in the tool nests.

4. Remove the crimped connector and inspect for proper crimp location and insulation closure. It may be required
to rotate crimped connector 90° to remove from the tool. Molex offers a Crimp Inspection Handbook for closed
barrel industrial product. See our website or contact your sales en ineer.
Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator of the tool be made aware of, and responsible for, the followin
maintenance steps:
1. Remove dust, moisture and other contaminants with a clean
brush, or soft, lint-free cloth.
2. Do not use any abrasive materials that could dama e the tool.
3. Make certain all pins; pivot points and bearin surfaces are
protected with a thin coat of hi h quality machine oil. Do not oil
excessively. This tool was en ineered for durability, but like any
fine piece of equipment it needs cleanin and lubrication for a
maximum service life of trouble-free crimpin . Use a li ht oil
such as 30 wei ht automotive oil at the oil points shown in
Fi ure 4, every 5,000 crimps or monthly will si nificantly
enhance the tool life and ensure a stable calibration.
4. When tool is not in use store the tool in a clean, dry area.
CAUTION: This crimp tool requires a re ulated air supply line with operatin pressure of 60 to 70 PSI. Hi her
pressure may cause dama e to the tool.
