Abstract
A crimp tool and a method of assembling the crimp tool. The crimp tool is formed by a pair of handle plates forming a moveable handle and a pair of frame plates forming a fixed jaw and a fixed handle. The tool also includes a moveable jaw, and a transmission by which the moveable jaw is driven towards and away from the fixed jaw. The handle and frame plates respectively are mutually held in juxtaposition by having edge portions snugly received in handle and frame shells. The tool is assembled by stacking the plates of the moveable handle and the components of the moveable jaw and the link, as well as the frame plates, and then inserting the stack into the frame shell, which preferably has a tubular portion into which the jaw portion of the stack is inserted.
