Qualified to AS22520/2, the Cablegia® AFM8® is designed for most of the miniature and sub-miniature connector types that are so widely used in electronic systems. The AFM8; meets the need for a miniature tool accommodating wire sizes 20 through 32 AWG.
The AFM8 gives a Mil-Standard 8 impression crimp, which assures maximum tensile strength. The cycle-controlled precision ratchet assures consistently accurate crimps every time. The tool frame has a built-in 8 step selector knob for ease in dialing the correct crimp depth setting for the wire being used.
Positioners adapt the tool frame to a particular application. The data plate on each positioner designates which contacts the positioner accommodates for its wire size and indicates the selector position. The positioner is easily removed and changed.
Periodic gaging is recommended to insure accurate calibration. This is easily accomplished with the M22520/3-1 “GO/NO-GO” gage (Cablegia® part no. G125) on SEL setting #8. The AFM8 is 6 3/4" in length and weighs approximately 10 oz.
Other than keeping the tool clean and properly stored when not in use, no operator maintenance is required.
System usage notes
- The frame alone cannot crimp. The AFM8 must be fitted with a K-series positioner (M22520/2-xx). Positioners of the AF8 (TH/TP/UH2-5) or MH860 (86 series) are not interchangeable.
- K numbers are serial numbers, not wire sizes. Select the positioner from the contact part number, then set the SEL knob to the value printed on the positioner data plate.
- Machined contacts only. This tool family is designed for machined pin and socket contacts (M39029 series). For stamped and formed contacts, insulated terminals, splices and coax, see the corresponding die-type tool families.
- Periodic calibration. Verify crimp-head closure with the G125 gage at SEL 8, or with the 88-200 full-cycle gage set covering SEL 1-8.
