Abstract:
This contact includes a closed-section crimp barrel, which is crimped by deforming the section thereof from an initial generally convex shape to a final crimping shape in which it is compression-necked onto the strands of the cable. At least one section of the crimped barrel has, in its thickness, at least two adjacent indentations, which extend along the outer periphery of said section and which are directed inward. The invention also relates to a method of crimping such a contact and to a corresponding crimping tool.
