Amphenol fci tool question

Hi, what is the applicable tool used on Amphenol FCI part 10145493-11LF

dmolly, welcome to the TechForum,

Take a look at crimp tool part number 10152960-001LF

Thanks Karl, but that is rated for 30awg, the 10145493-11F is 32awg. would it still work?

Hi dmolloy,

I’m not so sure it would crimp 32awg contacts, as the document GS-20-0591 only mentions the 10152960-001LF as the specified crimp tool for 28~30 awg contacts.

From page 2 of the GS-20-0591 Application Spec:

I was not able to find a specified hand crimp tool for the 32AWG contacts. If at all possible, I’d recommend you go with the 28~30AWG 10145493-10LF contacts so you could use the 10152960-001LF crimp tool.
