Under normal
atmospheric conditions, neither liquid nor gaseous
medium can penetrate the crimped connection.

Oxidation between crimped single conductors prevent-
ed, virtually eliminating the possibility any increase in
the crimped connection’s resistance.
Inadequate crimping can allow the conductor be
pulled out the connection Hollow spaces also remain,
permitting oxidation formation and leading increase
in contact resistance. However,
these instances can considered closed off due to
the twisted conductor.
Elevated resistance detrimental for both signal trans-
mission (signal flow damped) and power transmission,
resulting power loss and contact heating (risk fire). These tools open
automatically after the crimping operation complete.
Crimping tools with built-in ratchets are recommended,
such the WAGO Variocrimp tools.246

Crimping Tool
Insert the ferruled conductor into the crimping station.
What “gas-tight” connection?
In gas-tight connection, the conductor and the ferrule
are compressed, eliminating all spaces. Pack.
• Built-in ratchet mechanism ensures gas-tight crimp
connection.
Application notes:
• Improved crimping for higher conductor retention
• Crimping can performed from either side (for left- or
right-handed users). some exceptional
cases, minute, isolated spaces may present.
Ferruled conductor cross-sections specified for WAGO
products are based this crimping method. Unit Item No. Pack.
Space-saving crimping from all four sides ideal for
spring clamp termination.
