Blackburn HBKC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Blackburn HBKC die used for?
The HBKC is a U-type compression die for crimping connectors and lugs. It stamps die code BKC, which is the index a compression tool operator matches to the connector's marked die code so the crimp is made with the right profile.
2) How do I know the BKC die is the right one for my connector?
Match the code, not the wire size. Compression connectors are stamped with a die code, and the HBKC cuts the BKC profile. If the lug or splice you are installing is marked BKC, this is the die; if it is marked anything else, use the die carrying that code instead.
3) Is the Blackburn HBKC sold as a pair or as a single die?
It is sold each, so one order gets one die. If your tool head takes a matched upper and lower set, order accordingly.
4) Does the Blackburn HBKC work in a hydraulic crimper or a battery tool?
It is a U-type die, meaning it seats in tool heads built for the U-style die nest. Confirm your crimper head accepts U-type dies before ordering; a tool built for a different die mounting will not hold it.
5) What is the manufacturer part number for the Blackburn BKC compression die?
Blackburn catalogs it as HBKC. The H prefix is the part number; BKC is the die code stamped on the tool face and matched to the connector.
