Blackburn 6TONXSS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Blackburn 6TONXSS die actually do?
It's an indenter die for crimping lugs and connectors onto conductors. The 6TONXSS is rated at 6 ton and belongs to Blackburn's HEXFLEX series, so it goes into a compatible 6 ton crimping head rather than being a standalone tool. It makes an indent-style crimp, not a hex crimp.
2) Does the 6TONXSS come with a crimping tool?
No. The 6TONXSS is sold as a die only, one each per order. You supply the 6 ton crimping tool or head it seats in.
3) Will a 6 ton die work in my 12 ton crimper?
Match the tonnage. The 6TONXSS is a 6 ton die and is intended for 6 ton HEXFLEX tooling. Dies are sized to the head they seat in, so a 6 ton die is not a substitute for 12 ton tooling on larger conductors. Confirm your tool head is the 6 ton HEXFLEX platform before ordering.
4) What's the part number to order this Blackburn indenter die?
Order Blackburn part number 6TONXSS. That is the manufacturer part number for the 6 ton SS indenter die in the HEXFLEX series.
5) Is this Blackburn crimping die made in the USA?
Yes, the 6TONXSS indenter die is manufactured in the United States, which matters on public and federally funded jobs with domestic sourcing requirements.
6) Indenter die or hex die, which one do I need for my lugs?
Go by what the connector manufacturer calls for. The 6TONXSS makes an indent crimp, where the die drives a point or points into the barrel, which is what indent-style lugs and splices are listed for. Hex dies form a full six-sided compression around the barrel and are specified for hex-crimp connectors. Using the wrong style can void the connector's listing.
7) How many dies come in a pack of the 6TONXSS?
It ships as a single die, sold each. If you are outfitting more than one crew truck or want a spare for a worn set, order the quantity you need individually.
