Also, do not have more >than a couple pins to practice with. The G-125, aka, M22520/3-1 can be used to test crimp depth for both the small AFM-8 M22520/2-01 and large AF-8 M22520/1-01 crimpers. The NO-GO diameter is 0.0440 dia and the GO is 0.0390 dia. Use SEL 4 for the /1-01 and SEL 8 for the /2-01 tools. Plug gauges can be purchased from McMaster-Carr at this page http://www.mcmaster.com/#plug-gauges/=5cx5qj using these part numbers 23055A039 23065A044 for $3.06 each. The G-125 tool is little more than a dual ended collet holder for these plug gauges with the above instructions...

After the crimp is completed, give it a good pull test Don't try to destroy it, but give a good firm pull.
