Greenlee Textron 02065 K425BG Crimping Tool with "D3" and "BG" Die Grooves

The K425BG Mechanical Crimping Tools are hand-operated tools that use permanent die grooves and/or insertable W-type dies. These tools have two permanent die grooves, either a “BG” or “O”, and a “D3” for distribution tap connectors. The “D3” groove also serves as a seat for W-type die inserts to install additional connector types. The die inserts snap into a permanent “D3” groove easily with one hand and are secured with the spring-loaded, positive lock, die retaining buttons
