Burndy W8CVT Type W Crimping Die 8 AWG

The Burndy W8CVT is a Type W crimping die sized for 8 AWG copper lugs and colour-coded red for quick identification. It is intended for electricians and installers who need a matching upper and lower die set for hand, hydraulic or battery-powered crimping tools.

Capacity and headroom for 8 AWG copper lugs

The die set is rated for a maximum crimping force of 6 tons and handles 8 AWG copper lugs within the W-style series. It does not accommodate larger wire gauges or different connector series, so users requiring bigger capacities will need a separate die.

Tool compatibility limited to listed BCT500HS series

This die works only with the specific tool models BCT500HS, CSMD, MD6, MD7, OUR840, PAT500SJ, PAT600 and Y500CTHS. It will not fit crimpers outside that manufacturer series.
