Milwaukee 49-16-KITC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire range does the Milwaukee 49-16-KITC die kit cover?
The 49-16-KITC is a copper U style crimping die kit covering #8 through 600 MCM. That range takes you from small branch-circuit copper lugs up to large feeder terminations, so one kit handles most copper crimping on a commercial job instead of buying dies one at a time.
2) Are these dies for copper lugs or can I use them on aluminum connectors?
These are copper dies. The 49-16-KITC is specified as a copper U style die kit, so it is matched to copper connectors and copper wire sizes from #8 to 600 MCM. If you are terminating aluminum or dual-rated connectors, use the die set the connector manufacturer calls out for that material rather than this copper kit.
3) How do I know I picked the right die for the wire I'm crimping?
Each die in the kit is marked with its wire size, and the die size is pressed into the connector during the crimp so it matches the wire size right on the finished termination. Milwaukee also color codes the dies for quick selection. For an inspector walking the job, that stamped die size on the lug is the proof the correct die was used, with no cross referencing back to a chart.
4) Will U style dies work in my crimper, or do I need a different die profile?
U style is a specific die geometry, and the 49-16-KITC supplies U style dies only. They go into a crimper built to accept U style dies. If your tool head takes a different profile, such as a hex or indent die, this kit will not seat in it. Check what profile your crimper head is cut for before ordering.
5) Is this die kit suitable for utility or quality-controlled work where crimps get documented?
It is built for that. Every die in the 49-16-KITC is 100% inspected for critical dimensions and serialized, so each die carries a traceable identifier and the crimp quality can be tied back to a specific die. That matters on utility, data center, and institutional work where terminations are inspected and recorded.
6) What is the Milwaukee part number for the #8 to 600 MCM copper U style die kit?
Order it as Milwaukee 49-16-KITC. That single part number is the complete copper U style kit spanning #8 through 600 MCM, so there is no separate die-by-die ordering for sizes inside that range.
7) Will these dies hold up in a damp or outdoor environment like a pull box or substation yard?
The dies carry a stainless steel finish for corrosion protection, which is what you want for a kit that rides in a truck, lives in a gang box, or gets used in damp vaults and outdoor enclosures.
