Overview
EN 4008-012:2006 is a CEN product standard in the Aerospace series that defines the positioner used with the M22520/2-01 crimping tool for crimping the electrical contact EN 3155-023 in accordance with EN 4008-002. The document specifies required characteristics, materials, marking and designation to ensure consistent, repeatable crimping performance in aerospace electrical and optical connection assemblies.
Keywords: EN 4008-012, M22520/2-01, crimping tool positioner, aerospace standard, EN 3155-023, crimping tools.
Key Topics
- Function and description
- The positioner secures to the M22520/2-01 crimping tool via two bayonets and an internal spring-loaded central locator.
- Correct longitudinal placement of the contact is achieved when the contact butts against a shoulder in the central bore.
- Materials and finish
- Positioner body: aluminium alloy, colour blue.
- Positioner ferrule: stainless steel.
- Dimensions and mass
- Dimensional details are provided by the standard (see Figure 1); maximum mass is 30 g.
- Designation and marking
- Standardized product designation format: e.g., POSITIONER EN4008-012.
- Marking elements include data plate, manufacturer name/part number, bayonet lock pin and locator indication.
- Optional code I9005 may be inserted between description and identity blocks when required.
- Normative references and testing
- References include EN 2591-100 (terminology/test methods), EN 3155-023 (the contact product standard) and EN 4008-001 / EN 4008-002 (technical specification and product list).
- Users should follow the referenced test methods for verification.
Applications
- Ensures precise, repeatable crimps of EN 3155-023 electrical contacts when using the M22520/2-01 hand crimping tool.
- Typical users:
- Aerospace component manufacturers and assemblers
- Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facilities
- Tool and accessory suppliers for aerospace wiring harness production
- Quality, inspection and procurement teams specifying compliant tooling
- Practical benefits:
- Interchangeability of positioners across production lines
- Improved crimp consistency and electrical/mechanical reliability
- Traceability through standard marking and designation
