Product Description
Milwaukee W Style W-237 Crimping Die
Model Number: 49-16-W237
The Milwaukee 49-16-W237 is a W Style W-237 Crimping Die for the Milwaukee M18 FORCE LOGIC hydraulic crimping system — a precision-machined die set for making W-237 profile compression connector crimps on specified conductor sizes in utility distribution, substation, and commercial electrical connector termination applications. The W-237 die is a specific size within the W-style die standard — the die geometry matches the W-237 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 reliable service in utility and commercial electrical systems. Using the correct W-237 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 safe, reliable connections in utility distribution and commercial electrical systems. The consequences of a non-compliant crimp in an energized utility system can include connection failure, overheating, and potentially catastrophic service interruption that makes die selection accuracy a critical field practice.
Milwaukee clearly marks the die with its W-237 designation for accurate field identification — preventing die mix-up that produces non-compliant crimps in energized utility systems. The W-237 die integrates with Milwaukee's EXACT die system for quick tool-free changes during production crimping on utility distribution projects. Always verify connector manufacturer specifications for the correct die and conductor combination before terminating utility connections, and confirm that the conductor falls within the W-237 die's specified crimping range.
