Burndy U32RT Type U Crimping Die

The Burndy U32RT is a Type U crimping die designed for 400 kcmil cable. Its blue colour code allows quick identification among other dies. The upper and lower die set works with hand-held or pneumatic crimping tools. It is built to withstand a maximum crimping force of 12 ton.

Fits standard U-type crimping tools

This die set installs directly into compatible U-type crimper heads without adapters. The 12 ton rating keeps the die secure during high-force compression cycles. Using the matched upper and lower halves produces consistent terminations on 400 kcmil conductors. No additional tooling is required beyond a suitable crimper.

Suits electricians terminating 400 kcmil cable

Professionals who regularly crimp blue-coded connectors on 400 kcmil wire will find this die essential. It is not intended for other cable sizes or colour codes, so users needing different capacities should select the appropriate die. The tool-specific design also means it will not fit non-U-type crimping systems.
