Crimp Die

Crimp die selection chart

These die-sets are compatible with either PALADIN or ERMA coaxial crimping tools. Many dies may be suitable for more than one cable group.

Note: Although Telegartner (TG) and Amphenol BNC HD connectors are completely compatible with various Canford and Belden cables, the die-sets used for standard BNC connectors for the same cable group are unsuitable. Telegartner and Amphenol BNC HD connectors MUST be assembled with the crimp die-sets shown below.
Alternatively a Canford crimp tool is available for use with Telegartner (TG) BNC HD connectors.

Note: Specific tools are stocked for Canare, COAX and Neutrik BNC HD connectors, and these are shown with the connectors concerned.

These die set sizes are chosen to suit only specific connectors stocked by Canford, and may not be suitable for similar types, even from the same manufacturer.
