Mark-10 Wire Terminal Pull Tester

Mark-10 Wire Terminal Pull Tester

A Wire Terminal Puller is designed to measure the pull-off force of wire and tube terminations. Manufacturers that make up their own cables in quantity can use a wire terminal tester to prevent problems in the field.

How does a Wire Terminal Tester work?
A fixture holds one the end with the wire terminal or an optional fixture is available for ring terminals. The other end of the wire is connected to a cam assembly. An ergonomic lever allows for easy application of up to 200 lbF (1000 N) of force. Adjustable terminal fixture contains multiple slots for diameters up to AWG 3 (0.25 in [6.3 mm]).

Pull measurements are made at high speed to capture the instantaneous peak measurement. Data logging and PC communications are included for later analysis.
