Milwaukee 49-16-KITA – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire range does the Milwaukee 49-16-KITA die kit cover?
The 49-16-KITA is a U style die kit for aluminum connectors covering #8 AWG through 350 MCM. Each die in the kit is marked with its wire size, so you pick the die off the conductor size instead of a chart.
2) Is this Milwaukee die kit for aluminum or copper connectors?
Aluminum. The 49-16-KITA is built around aluminum U style crimps. If you're terminating copper lugs and splices, this is the wrong kit and you want the copper die set instead.
3) How do I know I've crimped with the right die on an aluminum connector?
The die size is pressed into the connector and matches the wire size, so there's no cross referencing a manufacturer chart on the truck. Colors on the dies are coded as well, which speeds up selection in a panel or a trench. Each die is also 100 percent inspected for critical dimensions and serialized, which is what an inspector or QA file is usually after.
4) Will these dies hold up in a damp or outdoor utility environment?
The dies carry a stainless steel finish for corrosion protection, so storage in a gang box or exposure on outdoor utility work won't pit them the way a plain steel die can.
5) What is the Milwaukee part number for the #8 to 350 MCM aluminum U style die kit?
Order it as Milwaukee 49-16-KITA. That single model number covers the whole aluminum U style set from #8 through 350 MCM.
