Abstract
A crimpable bundle tie is disclosed and claimed together with an applicator tool for attaching the bundle tie to a bundle containing a plurality of electrical wires. The bundle tie is generally U-shaped and its legs are inwardly deformed to envelop the wires. The applicator tool has a reciprocal anvil which moves towards a relatively stationary crimping means. The tool also has a number of reciprocal slides and levers for exerting a discontinuous force on the anvil during its travel. The anvil is spring-loaded so that the degree of deformation of the bundle tie is dependent upon the volume of wires enclosed.
