    Correct CT100 crimp size

    I bought a load of F-Type crimp plugs for CT100.
    I bought these from CPC, and asked them to specify the correct crimp tool .. and they supplied an H Tools HT-336G ratchet crimp.

    This has a Hex die size of 0.225" (6.48mm) ... and it is mangling the connectors, assume this die must be too small.

    (I can't over-crimp as it's a ratchet type tool)

    Does anyone know the correct Die size .. ? or could take a look at their CT100 tool.

    If by any chance anyone has a correct H Tool crimp for F-Type CT100 connectors, then please let me know the model number.
    Looking at the pack I suspect it is HT-336C2.

    The F-Type plus are VF10-601/L from Vitelec

    Sorry for dragging up this old thread.
    But I've had the same "issue" with CPC & VF10-601/L F-Types today.

    On a Google for "VF10-601/L", this thread was the only real result.

    Problem is that CPC are listing the wrong crimp tools for the VF10-601/L plug.
    A call to Vitelec confirmed that they need a 8.23mm (0.324") hex crimp, but CPC are listing it for use with 6.48mm (0.255") tools.

    In my case I ordered a HT-106A crimp tool, but it actually needs the HT-106H tool, which I've now ordered and the HT-106A will go back to CPC unless I can find another use for it.
