Crimping die for 2/0 AWG copper lugs

The Burndy U26RT is an upper-and-lower U-style die set built for 2/0 AWG copper lugs and splices. It accepts connector types YA and YS marked with a black colour code. The die fits 12-ton tools including the PAT46, PAT750, PUADP1, Y35, Y46 and Y750 across the 35 Series and 750 Series platforms.

Full 12-ton force delivered across the die face

Under sustained crimping cycles the die transmits the tool's rated 12-ton force evenly over the U-profile groove. The hardened steel surfaces resist deformation so each compression meets the same dimensional standard from the first lug to the last. Heat buildup during repeated use does not alter the crimp geometry.

Single-cavity 2/0 AWG capacity

This die crimps only 2/0 AWG copper conductors; it cannot accommodate larger or smaller wire sizes. Installers who need multiple gauge ranges must carry additional die sets. The black colour code on the connector barrel confirms the correct match before the tool closes.

Questions about this item

How much force does the 12 ton U26RT die need from the tool to crimp 2/0 AWG copper lugs all day?

The die is rated for a maximum crimping force of 12 ton, so the tool must supply that pressure for each crimp on 2/0 AWG copper lugs.

It fits PAT46, PAT750, PUADP1, Y35, Y46 and Y750 tools in the 35 Series and 750 Series.

Yes, the U26RT is listed as compatible with the Y35 and the 35 Series.
