Crimp/Solder 1/0 options


Recommended Posts

What size dies are y'all using for shca 1/0? I used the 70, but I don't really like the fins that it makes on the lug, would the 95 be too large?

I explained how to get rid of the fins.

You use 2 different size dies, and rotate the lug and do it about 4 times with each die. Crimp the entire length of the lug that hold wire, so you have to crimp it twice with each die anyways, and when you rotate it to get rid of the fins thats another 2 crimps with each.

So which two dies do you use?

Honestly I haven't crimped any 1/0, only the 2/0 from SHCA and even at that i dont recall. I just grab a set and test fit them around the lug before I do the crimp. I make sure it's going to get a decent squeeze but not too drastic each time.
