Product Description
Milwaukee W Style W-C Crimping Die
Model Number: 49-16-WC00
The Milwaukee 49-16-WC00 is a W Style W-C Crimping Die for the Milwaukee M18 FORCE LOGIC hydraulic crimping system — a precision-machined die set for making W-C profile compression connector crimps on specified conductor sizes in utility distribution, substation, and commercial electrical connector termination applications. The W-C die is a specific size designation within the W-style die standard used with W-style compression connectors — the die geometry matches the W-C connector's crimp pocket dimensions, conductor barrel shape, and crimping depth specification for crimps that meet connector manufacturer electrical resistance, mechanical pull-out strength, and dimensional compliance requirements for utility and commercial electrical service. Selecting the correct W-C die for the connector being terminated is essential — an incorrect die size produces a non-compliant crimp that may appear visually acceptable but fails to meet the performance specifications required for safe, reliable connections in distribution systems.
Milwaukee clearly marks the die with its W-C size designation for accurate field identification — preventing die mix-up that would produce non-compliant crimps in energized utility and commercial electrical systems. The W-C die integrates with Milwaukee's EXACT die system for quick tool-free die changes between connector sizes during production crimping on utility distribution and commercial electrical projects. Always verify connector manufacturer specifications for the correct die size for each specific connector and conductor combination being terminated.
