The Burndy MD6 series manual crimpers install almost all of the line, pole, and house connections in the Burndy Compression Connector Program with only one extra die set (W-BG).
The standard tool design has two permanent die grooves. Die inserts snap into the D3 groove easily with one hand and lock securely in the tool with the spring-loaded positive lock die retainer buttons.
The MD6 series of tools comes with a 5-year warranty and is designed to provide over 90,000 reliable crimps installing full-tension and non-tension connectors.
