Purchase now: Weidmüller PZ 6 Roto L Crimping Tool
Purchase now: Atlantech Drives provides you the Weidmüller 1501390000 (Model: PZ 6 Roto L), a professional-grade **Crimping Tool** for wire end ferrules. This is not just any crimper; it features a unique **Rotatable Die Head**. The crimp opening can be rotated to allow for either **front insertion** or **side insertion** of the wire. This flexibility is a game-changer when working in confined spaces, such as inside a crowded control cabinet or wiring a dense terminal block array.
Technical Specifications and Trapezoidal Crimp
The PZ 6 Roto L covers a wide cross-section range from **0.14 mm² to 6 mm²** (AWG 26…10) with a single die, meaning no die changes are required. It produces a high-quality **Trapezoidal Crimp** shape, optimized for Weidmüller terminal blocks (especially PUSH IN and tension clamp). The tool includes a ratchet mechanism that guarantees a complete crimp cycle; the handles will not release until the correct pressure has been applied, ensuring gas-tight connections every time.

Expert Tips: Why the «L»?
The «L» stands for locking mechanism. Expert Tip: The rotating die can be locked in two positions. Use the **Front Entry** mode when preparing wires on a workbench for maximum speed. Switch to **Side Entry** mode when crimping wires already routed inside a cabinet where you cannot fit the tool head-on. The trapezoidal shape is critical for ensuring the ferrule fits into the round or square holes of modern PUSH IN terminals without getting stuck.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Can I crimp Twin ferrules (2 x …)?
A: The PZ 6 Roto L is designed for single ferrules. For twin ferrules (e.g., 2 x 2.5 mm²), you typically need the **PZ 10** series or specific dies, as the plastic collar is wider.
Q: Does it work for non-insulated ferrules?
A: Yes, it crimps the metal tube regardless of the plastic collar, provided the length matches standard DIN specifications.
