| Subject: | Crimping tool question - finding a Molex 6115 Series crimper |
We are installing a Bendix-King KY97 radio. It uses a Molex connector
on the back of the card which, in turn, uses Bendix-King Part number
030-01107-00XX pins. The manual indicates that these should be
crimped with a Molex Series 6115 crimper.
At the Molex site, entering 6115 leads to the 11-01-0203 crimper. As
far as I can find, this is a $200.00 tool. Does anyone know if there
is an alternative tool available that will make acceptable crimps and
is not quite so pricey? So far I have not found a used 6115 for sale.

crimper
These are well made pieces of equipment and are usually only used by
professionals. they are ratchet crimpers that give a consistent crimp
to
every connection.
I would advise you to have an avionics shop to make up the cables for
you.
You can spend time making interconnect diagrams with the lengths of each
cable marked so they will fit where you want them. If there is anything
wrong with the interconnect diagram as you have it drawn up the avionics
shop will be able to advise you on revisions before one crimp is made or
a
piece of expensive equipment is damaged. Five or ten years down the
road
you will have an accurate diagram of exactly how your avionics were
installed. this is very handy if you want to make future upgrades or
changes.
I expect having the job done by an avionics shop won't cost you any more
than the crimper and the job will be warranted.
If you are the local electronics whiz then get the crimper and make
everyone's cables to pay for it.
There is a lot more to doing this type of work than making a few crimps.

crimper
Are you familliar with Bob Nuckolls? His site is the Aeroelectric Connection and he is a wizzard in this arena. If anyone would know the answer to your question, he would. Go to his site, e-mail him and he will get back...it may take a week as he is very busy. Hope this helps. Dan B. Mesa, AZ http://www.aeroelectric.com/seminars/seminars.html

--> Avionics-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com>
Dear Listers (Specifically Comcast Listers),
For about the last two days, Comcast was blocking incoming email from the Matronics
Email Lists because their spam filters thought the mail was spam. I was
able to finally get them to lift the block about 3pm PST 10/29/2006 and it appears
that people on Comcast are receiving List messages again.
If you are a Comcast user, you might want to email them and express your displeasure
with their Spam blocking policy, particularly as it relates to "matronics.com".
Sorry for the hassle...
