Orlando, FL — DMC is excited to announce the launch of the WA23B, DMC’s latest advancement in heavy-duty pneumatic crimp tools. The WA23B offers significant improvements over its predecessor, the WA23, and outperforms other similar products on the market.
The new and improved WA23B completes a full cycle 8-indent crimp in just 1.4 seconds, making it more than twice as fast as the previous model and faster than other similar products. Additionally, it is lighter and smaller making it easier to handle and store. The new dedicated gaging state simplifies calibration, while the ergonomically designed handle and push button offer enhanced comfort during prolonged use.
Like the previous model, the WA23B is capable of crimping machined contacts, uninsulated terminals, and uninsulated splices between 8-4/0 AWG. Both tools utilize interchangeable 23 type dies and locators, many of which meet stringent AS22520/23 standards for military-grade applications. Consistent with the prior model, the cycle control feature eliminates the possibility of incomplete and faulty crimps. Compared to other tools on the market, both tools depend on a single power supply.
The WA23 set the standard for heavy-duty indent crimping, but the WA23B raises the bar making it a superior choice for professionals working in high-mix, high-volume environments. Customers may continue to purchase the original, WA23 (M22520/23-01) while DMC pursues Mil-spec qualification for the WA23B.
