Product Description
Milwaukee W Style W-162 Crimping Die
Model Number: 49-16-W162
The Milwaukee 49-16-W162 is a W Style W-162 Crimping Die for the Milwaukee M18 FORCE LOGIC hydraulic crimping system — a precision-machined die set for making W-162 profile compression connector crimps on specified conductor sizes in utility distribution, substation, and commercial electrical connector termination applications. The W-162 die is a specific size within the W-style die standard used with W-style compression connectors — the die geometry matches the W-162 connector's crimp pocket dimensions, conductor barrel shape, and crimping depth specification for crimps that meet the connector manufacturer's electrical resistance, mechanical pull-out strength, and dimensional compliance requirements for utility and commercial electrical service. Selecting the correct W-162 die for the connector being terminated is essential — an incorrect die size produces a non-compliant crimp that may appear visually acceptable but fails the performance specifications required for reliable connections in distribution systems.
Milwaukee clearly marks the die with its W-162 size designation for accurate identification during field use — preventing die selection errors that would produce non-compliant crimps in energized utility and commercial electrical systems. The W-162 die integrates with Milwaukee's EXACT die system for quick tool-free die changes between connector sizes during production crimping work. Always verify connector manufacturer specifications for the correct die size for each specific connector and conductor combination being terminated.
