Abstract
A hand-held crimping tool is disclosed having an air cylinder which retains thereto a head member, and has a moveable piston which is attached to a cam member. The cam member is receivable through the head member, and a crimping tool is fixed to the head member, whereby the cam member is cooperable with the crimping tool to move die surfaces towards one another for the crimping actuation of a wire terminal. The head member includes a pawl assembly, whereby the pawl member is cooperable with a ratchet surface provided on the cam member, whereby the cooperation of the ratchet and pawl determines the axial movement of the cam member relative to the head member, which also determines the crimping force exerted on the terminals to be crimped.
