E-9R

Scotchlok™ E-9R Hand Crimping Tool Single-stroke, ratchet–release crimping action with integrated wire cutter for 3M™ Scotchlok™ Connectors ensures a positive connection the first time, every time. 3M's E-9R crimping tool is the latest innovation in industry-leading Scotchlok cable connection technology for telecom applications. This lightweight, handheld tool features single-stroke, parallel crimping action with a work-saving 10:1 mechanical advantage over applied hand force. The tool’s innovative ratchet-release design indicates a positive crimp by automatically releasing after each successful connection. An integrated wire cutter allows the user to trim conductors prior to each connection without changing tools. These features and the tool’s ergonomic design enhance user productivity by reducing fatigue and eliminating costly, time-consuming mis-connects. The E-9R crimping tool is compatible with all 3M™ Scotchlok™ Connectors including UY, UR, UY2, UR2, UP2, UAL, UP3, UB, 211 and UB2A units across the entire range of applicable wire sizes. This single tool provides superior operating characteristics in a costeffective replacement for the model 3M™ E-9E and E-9Y Hand Crimping Tools. Single-stroke, Ratchet-Release Action The E-9R crimper’s unique single-stroke, ratchet-release operation provides the craftsperson with a positive crimp indication by releasing only after the connector has been fully depressed and the connection made (see fig. 1) – eliminating judgment calls by the craftsperson, possible service disruptions or costly return trips. The E-9R provides a complete, secure crimp every time. Integrated Wire Cutter The E-9R tool improves efficiency by enabling users to effortlessly cut 26 AWG to 19 AWG (0.4-0.9 mm) copper wire and crimp all 3M™ Scotchlok™ Connectors without changing tools. To reduce the potential for misuse, the cutting surface is segregated from the crimping jaws and will not accept connectors. A spare blade and spring pin are conveniently stored in the handle cap (see figure 2). Simply pry the cap off with a flat screwdriver for access to the new blade or to temporarily store the discarded blade. Industrial-Strength Quality The E-9R hand crimper is specifically designed to handle the rigors of daily commercial use. It functions effectively across a wide range of temperatures, withstands repeated drops and is unaffected by exposure to common solvents. The tool’s light-weight and ergonomic design minimize user fatigue for more productive days in demanding highvolume environments. All ratchet adjustments are made at the factory and last the life of the tool. Field maintenance consists of occasional cleaning and lubrication. The tool is tested to 50,000 crimps with no performance degradation, backed by 3M’s standard oneyear warranty.
