Blackburn 15526XSS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What tonnage tool does the Blackburn 15526XSS flex die fit?
It's rated 12 to 14 ton, so it belongs in a 12 to 14 ton class compression tool head. Putting it in a lower tonnage tool will not develop the force the die was cut for, and a higher tonnage head is the wrong match for the die seat.
2) What does the code 45X marking on this Blackburn die mean?
Code 45X is the die index. Blackburn connectors and lugs are stamped with a matching die code, and you pick the die whose code matches the stamp on the connector you are crimping rather than going by conductor size alone. On the 15526XSS that code is 45X.
3) What is the Blackburn 15526XSS die used for?
It's a lug crimping tool die, sold one per order. You drop it into a compression tool to crimp connectors and lugs; the die itself does no work on its own, it's the interchangeable jaw insert that forms the crimp.
4) Does ordering one Blackburn 15526XSS get me a matched pair of die halves?
The selling unit is each, so one order line is one die item under part number 15526XSS. If you are stocking several crimp codes for a job, order a separate line per code you need.
5) Is the 15526XSS a stainless steel die or a black finish die?
Both descriptions refer to the same part. The die is SS flex style and finished in black, which is how you tell it apart from other codes in the same tonnage family on the truck.
6) Is the Blackburn 15526XSS crimping die made in the USA?
Yes, country of origin is the United States. That matters on public and federally funded electrical work where domestic sourcing has to be documented for the submittal.
