Operation
Where to strip wire jacket and where to crimp:
Crimp #1 Crimp #2 Strip
Strip Length
Step 1. Line up the wire to be crimped
with the strip line and the open end of
the wire grip. This is the length of the
wire jacket you want to remove.
Step 2. Insert the stripped wire into the
grip up to the strip line.
Step 3. Crimp on the rst crimp line
using a Greenlee EK12IDL or HK12ID
dieless crimping tool.
Step 4. Rotate the crimping tool 180° to
the other side of the wire grip and crimp
on the second crimp line.
Step 5. Attach the eye on the grip
harness to a pulling swivel or rope clevis.
Note: There may be some cracking of the grip
when it is crimped. This is a normal, inherent
property of the material when crimped and
will not affect the strength of the pull.
