Daniels Manufacturing Corporationâ (DMCâ) is an authorized and qualified provider of crimp tools and accessories that have been manufactured and qualified to various SAE and Military Specifications (Mil-Spec). However, there are other providers of crimp tools that are being advertised using Mil-Spec/military part numbers even though they are not authorized or qualified to do so. This situation is potentially hazardous for the entire aerospace community, Department of Defense, and maintainers of electrical wiring interconnect systems and may result in the compromise of mission critical electrical systems.
If not purchased directly from DMC, be wary of products that bear the M22520 & M81969 military part numbers, DMC trademarks, DMC CAGE code (11851), and appear almost identical to genuine DMC qualified products as listed on the Qualified Products Database (QPD) and Qualified Products List (QPL) because these products may not be approved or qualified under AS22520 or AS81969 and other specifications that apply. GIDEP SAFE-ALERTS F9Y-S-17-01A and F9Y-S-17-02A have been issued to alert the industry of the fraudulent misrepresentations.
