Overview

EN 4008-017:2006 is a CEN product standard in the Aerospace series that defines the requirements for the head (positioner) used with the M22520/4-01 crimping tool (see MIL‑C‑22520/4). It ensures consistent performance when crimping electrical contacts specified under EN 4008-002. This standard is relevant for aerospace crimping tool manufacturers, OEMs, repair stations, procurement and quality teams focused on aviation electrical connectors and crimping tool accessories.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope: Characteristics of the head (positioner) for M22520/4-01 crimping tools used to crimp contacts in accordance with EN 4008-002.
  • Orientation & fastening:
    • Orientation by a locating pin on the head.
    • Secured to the basic tool by two socket cap head captive screws.
  • Contact positioning: Contact longitudinal positioning is achieved by butting against a shoulder in the central bore of the positioner.
  • Locator spring: Locator must be fitted with a spring having a (210 ± 20) N.m spring stiffness (value quoted from the standard).
  • Dimensions & tolerances:
    • Positioner mass: max 70 g.
    • Dimensions and tolerances specified (general tolerances ± 0.25 mm).
    • Key dimensional callouts (e.g., protrusion, screw thread and stamping locations) are given in the standard drawing.
  • Materials & surface treatment:
    • Positioner body: aluminium alloy, blue colour (anodized spring retainer).
    • Positioner locator: stainless steel.
  • Marking & designation:
    • Example designation: POSITIONER EN4008-017 (optionally with code I9005).
    • Marking details and stamping positions are defined in the drawing.
  • Reference to technical spec: Technical specification requirements are covered by EN 4008-001; test and measurement methods rely on EN 2591-100.

Practical applications and users

  • Aerospace tool and accessory manufacturers designing or supplying heads/positioners for M22520/4‑01 crimping tools.
  • Avionics and aerospace OEMs specifying compliant tooling for production and assembly of electrical contacts.
  • MRO (maintenance, repair, overhaul) and depot facilities ensuring replacement heads meet dimensional, material and performance requirements.
  • Quality assurance, procurement and regulatory teams verifying conformity of crimping tool accessories for aviation applications.
  • Test laboratories using EN 2591-100 and EN 4008-001 for verification and acceptance testing.
