Blackburn 6TON37XSS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What crimping tool does the Blackburn 6TON37XSS die fit?
The 6TON37XSS is a 6 ton hex die, so it goes into 6 ton class lug crimping tools that take flex-style dies. Match the tool's tonnage rating to the die: a 6 ton die belongs in a 6 ton head, not a 12 ton or battery hydraulic head of a different class.
2) What does the 37X marking on this Blackburn die mean?
37X is the die index code stamped on the die, and it corresponds to the matching die code embossed on the connector barrel. Crimp the lug or splice with the die whose code matches the one printed on the connector; that pairing, not the wire size alone, is what makes the crimp correct.
3) Is the Blackburn 6TON37XSS a hex crimp die or an indent die?
It is a hex die. The crimp it produces is a full hex compression around the connector barrel, which is what most compression lugs and splices are specified for, rather than a single-point indent.
4) Is the Blackburn 6TON37XSS die stainless steel, and does that matter for outdoor or utility work?
Stainless steel construction, which is the reason to pick this version over a plain steel die: it holds up better to moisture in a truck-mounted die set, on utility line work, or in a damp vault where dies sit between jobs.
5) Does the 6TON37XSS come as a set of dies or just one die?
It is sold each, so one 37X hex die per order. If you are crimping a range of conductor sizes you will need the additional die codes called out on each connector, ordered separately.
6) What is the exact part number to order this Blackburn 6 ton hex die?
Order Blackburn part number 6TON37XSS. That number covers the 6 ton stainless hex flex die with the 37X die index in green.
7) Why is this crimping die green, and does the color mean anything?
The die is color coded green, which is how crews tell dies apart quickly in a pouch or die case on the job. The green marking here goes with the 37X index; always verify against the stamped 37X code rather than relying on color alone.
8) Is the Blackburn 6TON37XSS made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States, which is what matters on federally funded and Buy American jobs where tooling and consumables get documented.
