Blackburn 15517SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Blackburn 15517SS die do, and what tool does it go in?
The 15517SS is a crimping die for lug and connector crimping tools, sized for 12 to 14 ton stainless steel flex-style tooling and marked die code 80H. It is a blank die, meaning the crimping cavity is not indent-marked with a conductor size, so it produces an unstamped crimp. It is sold individually, one die per order.
2) Will the 15517SS die fit my 12-ton hydraulic crimper?
It is built for the 12 to 14 ton stainless steel flex die pattern, so it seats in crimping heads that take that SS flex die style in the 12 to 14 ton class. If your crimper uses a different die family (U-die, P-die, or a 6-ton head), this one will not seat. Match the die code 80H stamp on your existing dies as the quickest check.
3) What does "blank" mean on a crimping die like the 80H?
A blank die leaves no embossed code in the crimp. Standard dies press a raised die-code character into the lug barrel so an inspector can confirm the right die was used; the blank version of the 80H skips that stamp and gives a clean compression. Electricians choose blank dies where the marking is not required or would interfere with taping and insulating the connection.
4) Is the Blackburn 15517SS a complete die set or a single die?
Single die. The selling unit is each, so one 15517SS covers one die code (80H) at the 12 to 14 ton flex size. Crews standardising a crimping kit order one die per connector size they terminate.
5) What is the manufacturer part number for the 12-14 ton SS flex 80H blank die?
Blackburn part number 15517SS. Order by that number to get the 12 to 14 ton stainless steel flex die in die code 80H, blank.
6) Where is the Blackburn 15517SS crimping die made?
Manufactured in the United States. That matters on public and federally funded work where domestic-origin tooling and material documentation is part of the submittal package.
