BURNDY W1CVT #1 AWG Crimp Connector W-Die
The BURNDY W1CVT is an industrial-grade, stainless steel W-type die engineered for the precise termination of #1 AWG conductors. Designed for fast field identification and seamless integration into a wide array of BURNDY compression tools, this die ensures reliable, code-compliant electrical connections across telecommunications and power distribution applications.
Key Engineering Features
- Color-Coded Identification: Color-keyed GREEN and stamped with die index 11 to perfectly match corresponding connectors, minimizing setup errors.
- Built-In Inspection: Embosses the die index (11) directly onto the finished crimp, enabling rapid visual verification by QA inspectors or field engineers.
- Quick-Change Design: Snaps securely and effortlessly into the host crimper's jaw grooves without requiring additional retaining hardware or tools.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from genuine stainless steel, providing exceptional durability and resistance to wear, thereby maintaining tight dimensional tolerances over thousands of crimp cycles.
Verified Tool Compatibility
The W1CVT die is natively compatible with the following BURNDY compression tools:
- MD6 and MD7 mechanical hand crimpers
- OUR840 full-cycle ratchet crimpers
- Y500CTHS hand-operated hydraulic crimpers
- PAT600 and PATMD series battery-actuated crimping tools
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What wire size and color code is the BURNDY W1CVT engineered for?
A: This W-die is specifically designed for #1 AWG conductors and is color-keyed GREEN with a die index of 11.
Q: Will this die emboss the connector during the crimping process?
A: Yes. The die automatically embosses its index number (11) onto the exterior of the finished connection, providing immediate, verifiable proof of correct die selection for inspectors.
Q: Can I use this die in a battery-actuated crimping tool?
A: Yes, it is fully compatible with BURNDY PAT600 and PATMD battery-operated models, as well as several manual and hydraulic crimpers like the MD6, MD7, and Y500CTHS.
