Burndy W163 Crimping Die for 1 AWG

The Burndy W163 crimping die set includes upper and lower dies designed for 1 AWG aluminum and copper lugs. It is built for electricians and technicians who need reliable terminations on heavy-gauge conductors. The dies deliver up to 6 tons of crimping force when paired with a compatible tool.

Works with Burndy W-Style Crimpers Only

These dies fit the W-style series and accept hand, hydraulic or battery-powered crimpers from the CSMD, MD6, MD7, OUR840, PAT500SJ, PAT600, PATMD6 and Y500CTHS families. They cannot be used with non-W tooling or with dies of a different series. The 6-ton force limit defines the maximum joint strength achievable.

Simple Die Swap, Verify Tool Compatibility

Installation is a straight die change on any supported crimper; no special adjustment is required. The most common issue is selecting a tool that does not belong to the listed series, which prevents the dies from seating correctly. Always confirm the crimper model before starting the job.
