Question
The sleeve gets a square profile after crimping. Does it affect contact resistance in the disconnector?
Answer
All tools designed for crimping of end sleeves have square-like profiles. It can be of square, trapezoidal form, or trapezoidal with an indent. As a rule, a crimped end sleeve has notches all over its body for a better connection with the wire. Moreover, the spot of electric contact is more for square than for round surfaces.
