Advantage of Hex Crimp
A hexagonal crimp is suitable for both copper and aluminium conductors. The advantage is the central force which is applied consistently from all directions by the crimping tool. The advantage of a hexagonal crimp is the central force which is applied consistently from all directions and over a larger area during the crimping operation. During this crimping operation the individual strands of the conductor are being homogeneously compressed preventing any damage.
