004: CRIMPING DSUB (DB) MACHINED PINS for Avionics
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- This is a very short and quick tutorial on crimping the standard 'DB' or "D-Sub / DSub" avionics pins and contacts using the proper tool called a 4 way indent crimper (which actually provides 8 small crimps using 2 rows of 4 contact points inside the crimping tool).
That's a nice Rolex D-Submariner you're wearing
its actually a Rolex GMT but yeah i get it
@@m4ck408 excellent choice IMO. I prefer the GMT over the Submariner. I should have looked more closely. Rock On Brother!
You should mention that the crimpers need to be set for a specific gauge wire, and that the strip back should be within 1/32" of the back of the pin.
You are correct - good points!
Just started a job as an avionics harness assembler. I’ll be back!
What is the correct wire strip length and how is there a good way to set it with the stripmaster?
I have a question. The d-sub pins are the same as in the VGA connectors??? does it fit in a breadboard???
The answer to my own question is yes. The fit perfectly.
can i use normal wires with ferrule terminals for crimping purpose with this tool???
Cool watch - looks like a Rolex GMT!
Thanks you have the most helpful video I've see on crimpers the others looked at don't fully crimp the wire can you please say the name of the first set you showed the red pair
I wanna know that too
I believe those crimpers are called "4 way indent crimpers for d-subminiature". Because the "iris" inside the opening crimps simultaneously in 4 places around the crimp pin.

Hi are you suppost to crimp the plastic jacket?
Where did you get the black AFM8s? Is it a special crimper?
9 year old video, I was 10 when you made this, anywho, I'm random
Please make more videos on how to crimp with the tool and different parts of it.
Is this the same crimper used for bendix s6LN-21 ignition leads?
Do you still sale these crimper
Great Video. Thank You
can you give a reference for the import crimpter ?
We call it a 4 way indent crimper. Our SKU: SAT-004
Can you tell me where did you buy the read one?
Thank you for video! I can't see from video if wires you are using have their ends soldered or you just collected wire cores by hand?
anton lancevič The wires in this video are not soldered or "tinned" with solder (though the wire we use is Mil Spec tin plated copper with Tefzel insulation). You can dip the ends if you desire, but it often is not required.
Hello , may i ask how to determine the pin size (AWG )? Is it is about the band color? Thank you
Our standard dsub pins and sockets work for 20AWG and 22AWG. The high density dsub pins and sockets work for 22AWG and 24AWG. We don't generally work with anything smaller than that. I hope that helps.
I have a question? Will these crimp pins male and female work for audio? I'm building a bunch of dsub25 snake cables for my recording studio and they are a pain to solder each piece. You're website has everything I was looking for and I just wanted to know if you had any experience using these for audio purpose, and are they gold plated? Thank you ahead!
Amex Absolutely. Typically a crimped connection with the gold plated machined contacts (like we stock) are FAR superior to the solder cup type Dsub connectors, especially from an Audio or Data standpoint. They are used extensively in everything from data lines to audio lines (reception and transmission), etc..
@@SteinAir I believe these are also the same pins used by Phoenix Contact in their HEAVYCON modular connector system. They use machined pins that have the PN prefix CUC-DSCxxxxx and its taken a LOT of time and research, but I am nearly positive that DSC in their PN stands for D-Sub Connector. That realization meant that I don't have to buy the $1800 Phoenix crimping tool, but I can use the Iwiss crimping tool which costs only $32. Nearly identical to the low cost crimping tool you show in your video. Thank you for the great video!!!
where did you get the 32 pair from @@StreuB1
Are you pre tinning the wire!! Is the wire plastic or teflon??
Neither - the wire is tefzel...and one wouldn't normally "pre-tin" a crimped connection - usually only solder connections.
@@SteinAir thanks, i,m a tube amp guy . This is new to me. I don,t get past cloth wire and high temp plastic coated. Very informative. We do and don,t pretin
Russell E Simonetta FYI, never, ever tin a wire with solder before crimping or clamping into a screw terminal. The solder will actually “flow” under the compression, resulting in a loose joint in the long term.
What do you use for insertion and extraction
Like!
what you call a pin is actually a socket...both are contacts but not both are pins...
