Burndy W25VT crimping die

The Burndy W25VT is a W-style crimping die set coloured pink for 1/0 AWG aluminium lugs. It fits CSMD, MD6, MD7, PAT500SJ, PAT600 and Y500CTHS series tools. Electricians and linespeople use it to make consistent crimps on large-gauge aluminium conductors. The die pair installs directly into compatible hand or powered crimpers.

Hand or powered crimper operation

The die set works with both manual and hydraulic crimping tools rated up to 6 tons. No external power source is required beyond the tool itself. Normal use produces only the mechanical noise of the crimper mechanism. There are no thermal considerations during typical crimping cycles.

1/0 AWG aluminium lug capacity

This die is sized specifically for 1/0 AWG aluminium lugs and will not crimp smaller or larger gauges correctly. The pink colour code matches the connector identification system. Buyers who need to crimp different wire sizes or copper lugs must select the appropriate die for those specifications.

Questions about this item

How do I fit the W25VT die onto my MD6 or PAT500SJ crimper, and which step is commonly missed?

Slide the upper and lower die halves into the crimper head until they click into the W-style grooves; the step often missed is verifying the pink colour code faces outward to match 1/0 AWG aluminium lugs.

What part of this die will wear out first and need replacement?

The crimping profile edges on both die halves wear from repeated 6-ton compressions; once the profile no longer forms a full hex on the lug, the die set must be replaced.

At what force limit does this die stop giving reliable crimps during continuous use?

The die is rated for a maximum of 6 tons; sustained crimping at or above that force will cause profile deformation and inconsistent connections.
