Deutsch Crimper for Solid Contacts, DTP, DT, DTM Connectors (12-22AWG)

When considering whether to purchase the DT1 or DT2 crimper, this guide can provide the answers you need. Both tools are capable of crimping 12-gauge, 16-gauge, and 20-gauge Deutsch terminals.

If you primarily crimp 12-gauge terminals, the larger DT2 may be the better choice. Conversely, if your terminals are mostly 20-gauge, and you want to save effort, the smaller DT1 crimper is recommended. The DT1 is also suitable for high-altitude operations.

The DT2 crimps wires ranging from 12 to 22 AWG (3.0 to 0.35 mm²), while the DT1 handles 12 to 22 AWG (4 to 0.32 mm²). Both tools are specially designed for Deutsch terminals in sizes 12, 16, and 20.

The DT2 features a fixed and adjustable positioner, with an aperture size of 5.6 mm. It measures 9.75 x 2.30 x 2.0 inches and weighs 20.14 ounces. The DT1, on the other hand, has a fixed and adjustable positioner, a 5.6 mm aperture, measures 7.95 x 2.09 x 1.97 inches, and weighs 16.93 ounces.
