Crimp Ferrule Holder Gimex 318.561 for Ferrules 0.2–1.5 mm

The Gimex 318.561 crimp ferrule holder is an accessory designed to hold crimp ferrules (sleeves) sized 0.2–1.5 mm during termination operations. It stabilizes small ferrules and keeps them aligned while a compatible crimping tool performs the crimp, helping to achieve consistent mechanical and electrical contact in workshop and field environments.

Advantages

This ferrule holder provides a steady grip on small sleeves to reduce slipping and misalignment during crimping. Its form factor is intended to speed up repetitive termination tasks and improve accuracy when working with fine ferrules. The holder is compatible with standard crimping workflows and supports reliable, repeatable crimps on wires that require ferrules in the 0.2–1.5 mm range.

Suitable for

• Electrical and electronic terminations using ferrules sized 0.2–1.5 mm
• Workshop assembly and repair tasks requiring precise ferrule placement
• Field service work where a compact holder helps stabilize small sleeves during crimping
• Repetitive production or maintenance operations where consistent crimps are needed

When it may not be suitable

The holder is engineered specifically for crimp ferrules within the 0.2–1.5 mm size range and may not reliably hold ferrules outside that dimension. It is an accessory and requires a compatible manual or hydraulic crimping tool to perform crimps; it does not perform crimping by itself.

Key specifications

• Compatible ferrule size: 0.2–1.5 mm
• Function: holds/cradles small crimp ferrules for alignment during crimping
• Intended use environment: workshop and field service
• Compatibility: designed for use with compatible crimping tools and standard ferrules

How to use

Place a crimp ferrule into the holder so the sleeve is seated and aligned with the holder’s gripping surface. Position the holder and ferrule assembly into the jaws of a compatible crimping tool according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Apply the crimping action to compress the ferrule onto the stripped conductor while the holder maintains alignment. After crimping, remove the completed termination from the holder and inspect the crimp for mechanical integrity and electrical contact.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your crimp ferrules fall within the 0.2–1.5 mm size range.
• Confirm compatibility with the crimping tool you use, including jaw geometry and holder mounting or seating method.
• Consider the volume and environment of use (workshop or field) to determine if a simple holder meets durability needs.

Usage recommendations

Use the holder together with the recommended ferrules and a compatible crimping tool. Inspect ferrules and stripped conductors for correct length and cleanliness before crimping, and perform a visual and mechanical check of each crimp to ensure reliable electrical connection.
