Any got suggestions on the type of labels used to mark the wires?

the reason i ask is because i bought a Dymo Rhino6000 label maker to print onto yellow heatshrink but when i went to order the yellow heatshrink cartridge i find that dymo has discontinued the yellow heatshrink and only have white heatshrink labels.

my next alternative is to either use just a standard yellow wrapped around the wire and use some clear adhesive lined heatshrink.

would this be good enough or should i just go for the white heatshrink? how does raywire and chase do theirs? i can quite tell from the pictures.

heres the dymo printer for reference: http://global.dymo.com/enNZ/ProductA...HINO_6000.html

I have the Dymo 5000 and don't have a problem finding yellow shrink. I'm not sure if it's the same though....

Keep in mind that this type of label printer is NOT what they are using....

yup T1.. Tony Palo. has plenty of them.

I only have the terminals for those connectors, not the housings.

NAEGH22

yeah, i haven't seen anyone that has tracked down new replacement housings. Even the harnesses that i've seen by Rywire and Chasebays 'LOOK' like they've reused oem connectors, not 100% sure though.

yea about $1000 harnesses for use of oem material.

What are your guys thoughts on using the Tyco CGPT heatshrink as an alternative to the Tyco/Raychem DR-25 stuff?

From the specs it might not be as chemical resistant and is slightly thinner walled compared to the DR-25, but for a general non race application i think it would be acceptable not to mention more affordable.

For all you wire Gurus is anyone using a crimper that crimps wire and insulation on open barrel contacts all in one?*

I've been looking at the Xcelite ones

http://www.cooperhandtools.com/brand...c=037103197245

But not sure if it will crimp the smaller pins, (think ECU pins).

Maybe a Pressmaster crimper

http://www.pressmaster.com/visa_produkt.asp?id=1027

These look to be the same as the Xcelite ones posted first so maybe these ones that do smaller AWG wire

http://www.pressmaster.com/visa_produkt.asp?id=1022

Or maybe the AMP Pro-crimper ||| 58514-1 says it does wire from 26-18AWG

Just want to know what everyone is using & how they like them

Any help is much appreciated guys

the OEM connectors are made by Sumitomo. I haven't found a place to buy the from but i did find the data sheets with the part numbers. It looks like you can buy them from sumitomo directly but you have to buy 4 to 5000 at a time. I made a post about it in the "Tucked Engine Bay" thread. I'm too lazy to link to it at the moment.

does anyone know if this part number from mouser includes the pins? MS3474W24-61S also is there a cheaper alternative to this crimper? M22520/1-01 or
M22520/2-01

Pick up a used crimper on ebay or crimptools.com. I bought a good condition daniels af8 (M22520/1-01) for less then 100 bucks

EBay is great to find these at a great price

yep can save alot by purchasing a slightly used one, I still need to get a turret for mine.

Chris Crane

what about the turrets? are they really needed or could a person with half a brain get by without buying them?

cbustuner

turrets are pretty cheap on ebay as well. Mine came with the popular th1a turret.You could also buy the uh-25 universal turret

Chris Crane

basically i already have access to a hdt48 since my dad works for CAT and they use the Deutsch DT connectors on all the equipment, would that work to crimp the pins in this connector? MS3474W24-61S

I've been trying to contact PRS for about 2 weeks now. Clint is normally the man for the job but my god, he's not responded at all. It's bothering me since I'm trying to create about 10 harnesses for some customers of mine.

I've noticed however, he's not the only one not answering though.
