SMART
®
Tools
Tool is “smart” because it requires no dies
Automatically compresses to the correct depth
based on size of connector in jaws
C-type head swivels 90° for easy crimp positioning
Forged steel construction is well suited for both
field and bench work
Installs both Color-Keyed
®
and non-insulated
Sta-Kon
®
connectors
How the SMART
®
Tool Works
The SMART
®
Tool was engineered with built-in intelligence* that enables
it to sense the connector barrel diameter and automatically apply just the
right amount of compression force. This eliminates virtually all air spaces
and forms the connector and conductor strands into a solid mass, resulting
in a high-quality, low-resistance connection. In addition, the tool clearly
embosses “T&B” with each compression for positive verification that
the correct tool was used.
* System Novopress
Uniform, Dependable Connections
The SMART
®
Tool gives you consistent, high-quality compression
connections over a wide range of connector sizes. Available in manual,
battery-powered and air-operated versions, this tool easily installs lugs
and splices from #8 AWG through 900 kcmil copper or 750 kcmil aluminum
— without changing dies. For the specified wire range, all you need is one
tool. You always have the right die size, eliminating die-selection mistakes.
Lower Installation Costs
Productivity will be greatly improved with the SMART
®
Tool, especially
when installing a variety of connector sizes or types. Initial investment
is low, requiring minimal tool inventory. These benefits add up to lower
installed cost.
C-Type Yoke Offers Installation Convenience
The C-type yoke configuration and large die spacing enable the SMART
®
Tool to slip directly over the connector. This means added speed and
convenience when installing two-way splice connectors, especially in
confined spaces.
