Blackburn 6TON45SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the "45" mean on the Blackburn 6TON45SS die?
45 is the die index code stamped on the die, and it's how you match the die to the conductor size and connector the manufacturer calls out. Crimping is done by code, not by guessing: read the code printed on the lug barrel and use the die carrying that same code. The BLK/GLD coloring on this one is the visual identifier so you can grab the right die out of a full set quickly.
2) Will this die fit my 12 ton or hydraulic crimper?
No. The 6TON45SS is rated for a 6 ton tool and should only be used in a 6 ton crimper head. Dies for 12 ton and larger hydraulic tools use a different mounting and a different die family, so match the tool tonnage before ordering.
3) Do I get a pair of dies or just one piece when I order 6TON45SS?
Selling unit is each. A crimp needs the matched upper and lower halves that make up the die set for code 45, so check what your tool head already holds before you decide on quantity.
4) What is the exact part number to order for the Blackburn 6 ton hex die, code 45?
Order Blackburn part number 6TON45SS. That's a 6 ton stainless hex die with the 45 die code, in black/gold.
5) Is a stainless steel crimping die better for outdoor or damp work?
Stainless construction is the practical advantage here. Dies live in a truck box and get handled with wet gloves, and a stainless die resists the surface rust that makes a carbon steel die stick in the tool head or mar a lug barrel. Nothing about the crimp itself changes; the material is about how the die holds up in service.
