Specification Sheet
Order No. 63891-8000
FEATURES
Directly adapts to most automatic wire processing machines
Applicator designed to industry standard mounting and shut height 135.80mm (5.346")
Quick set-up time; plus the crimp height, track and feed adjustments can be set without removing the applicator
from the press
Fine adjustment allows users to achieve target with little effort by adjusting in increments of .015mm (.0006") for
conductor crimp height and .063mm (.0025") for insulation height
Independent adjustment rings allow users to quickly adjust the conductor or insulation crimp height without
affecting each other.

The crimp on this terminal is not an electrical crimp; the final soldering operation is the electrical
connection. This minimum force is what should be expected when pulling the terminal with both
insulation and conductor crimped.
Notes:
1. The Conductor crimp (D dimension on Figure 1) should be set at the maximum height to contain all wire
strands, meet minimum pull, and fit into the PCB Hole. Shimming may be required of the conductor punch to
optimize this for different wire types.

NOTES
1. Molex recommends an extra perishable tooling kit be maintained at your facility.
2. Verify tooling alignment by manually cycling the press and applicator before crimping under power. Check that all
screws are tight.
3. Slugs, terminals, dirt, and oil should be kept clear of work area.
4. Wear safety glasses at all times.
5. For recommended maintenance refer to the Mini-Mac Manual.
CAUTION:
This applicator should only be used in a press with a shut height of 135.80 mm (5.346”).
Tooling damage could result at a lower setting
CAUTION:
To prevent injury, never operate this applicator without the guards supplied with the press or
wire-processing machine in place. Reference the press or wire processing manufacturer’s instruction
manual.
CAUTION:
Molex crimp specifications are valid only when used with Molex terminals, applicators and
tooling.
