    Those jaws are intended for non insulated lugs on aluminum wire, not insulated tin plated copper terminals. Might be perfectly functional but not correct.

      The material doesn't matter that much as long as the die is the correct size. You can crimp non insulated copper, brass, or aluminum lugs on aluminum or copper wire.

    • @AT-zc1ik
      @AT-zc1ik Před 6 měsíci +1

      It may be functional, but not correct. Material can very imprortant for several reasons, crimp profile (an aluminum lug wouldnt like an indent crimp profile, likely cracking), aluminum and copper do not mix and can cause galvanic corrosion.

      It may do with the right die selection, Brady. However, different terminals require different shaped crimping dies and varying crimping pressures. So, might be best to speak to a Milwaukee crimp press expert. Reach out via milwaukeetool.com/Contact. Good luck!
