Crimping die for crimping system pliers, for MC4 and MC4 Evo 2 solar connectors, 2.5 to 6 mm² - Knipex 97 49 66

When photovoltaic modules are connected, the connector contacts have to be crimped with reliable, repeatable quality. Crimping die 97 49 66 converts the manual and electromechanical KNIPEX crimp system pliers for PV connectors MC4® and MC4® Evo 2 and covers the cross sections 2.5, 4 and 6 mm² in three nests.

Benefits

• Crimps contacts for connecting photovoltaic panels without the need for a second pliers system.
• High-precision crimp geometry for the best and most repeatable crimp results.
• Three nests cover 2.5, 4 and 6 mm², matching AWG 14, 12 and 10.
• One die for both connector generations, MC4® and MC4® Evo 2.
• The optional locators 97 49 66 1 for MC4® and 97 49 66 1 Evo for MC4® Evo 2 align the contacts automatically and precisely.
• Compact die of 50 x 11 mm weighing only 33 g, so the pliers stay light and easy to handle.
