KNIPEX 97 59 63 Locator TE Series for TE Intercontec

KNIPEX 97 59 63 TE Series Locator for TE Intercontec
An industrial-grade contact pin locator from Germany, designed as an essential accessory for use with KNIPEX Four-Mandrel Crimping Pliers, model 97 52 63. This series is specially developed to accommodate turned contacts from the world-class connector brand TE (Intercontec). Its key function is to precisely lock, support, and adjust the depth of the pin in the center of the crimping die, preventing skewed, tilted pins or crimping that fails to meet depth standards. It accommodates wire sizes from 0.08 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 28–14). Made of high-grade metal through high-precision machining, it withstands tens of thousands of crimping cycles. It is a vital component in the production of signal and power cable harnesses for servo motor drives, industrial robotics, and automation control panels that demand maximum electrical conductivity stability and safety.

Features
Serves as the main accessory system designed for installation and use with KNIPEX 4-indent crimping pliers, model 97 52 63

Designed for maximum precision 4-directional positioning of turned contacts

Specifically developed to support and match TE (Intercontec) industrial connector series
