Overview
EN 4008-006:2006 is a European product standard from CEN that defines the positioner used with the M22520/7 crimping tool for crimping electrical contacts in aerospace applications. The document specifies the required characteristics, materials, marking and designation so the positioner reliably locates contacts to be crimped in accordance with EN 4008-002. This standard supports consistent tooling, interchangeability and quality control for aerospace crimping tools and associated accessories.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Function and mounting
- Secures to the M22520/7 crimping tool by two bayonets and an internal spring-loaded locator.
- Contact positioning is achieved by the contact butting against a shoulder in the central bore.
- Locator spring characteristic
- Locator must be spring-loaded to depress 0.79 mm with a force of (9 ± 4.5) N.
- Dimensions and tolerances
- Dimensions are provided in millimetres (see figure in standard). General tolerances: ± 0.25 mm.
- Maximum mass: 30 g.
- Materials and finish
- Positioner body: aluminium alloy, colour green.
- Locator: stainless steel.
- Marking and designation
- Surfaces must be marked with the manufacturer’s name and part number, and the text EN 4008-006 "use with M22520/7 basic tool".
- Example designation format given (POSITIONER EN4008-006; optional code I9005).
- Related technical content
- Refers to general terminology and test methods in EN 2591-100 and to the technical specification EN 4008-001. It is intended for use with EN 4008-002 product requirements.
Applications and who uses this standard
- Aerospace manufacturers specifying tooling for wire termination and harness assembly.
- Tooling suppliers and OEMs designing or producing positioners and accessories for the M22520/7 crimping tool.
- Procurement and quality managers ensuring purchased positioners meet aerospace product standard requirements for interchangeability and traceability.
- Maintenance and repair teams replacing or refurbishing crimping tool accessories to approved specifications.
- Test laboratories performing acceptance checks and mechanical verification against the standard’s characteristics.
