Crimp Pull Testing

Crimp Pull Testing – Ensuring Strong, Reliable, and Safe Wire Connections

Crimp pull testing is an essential quality-control process used to verify the strength and reliability of crimped electrical connections. By applying controlled force to a terminated wire until separation, crimp pull testing ensures that each connection meets required mechanical and electrical performance standards. This helps manufacturers prevent failures, improve consistency, and comply with industry regulations such as IPC/WHMA-A-620, UL, and automotive specifications.

Used across industries including aerospace, automotive, medical devices, electronics manufacturing, and industrial equipment, crimp pull testing provides critical assurance that wire terminals, lugs, connectors, and splices are properly crimped and capable of performing in real-world environments. Whether conducted manually or with automated pull testers, the process delivers measurable data that supports traceability, quality assurance, and continuous improvement.

Reliable crimp pull testing helps manufacturers reduce warranty issues, minimize field failures, and maintain high-quality product performance—making it a vital step in any cable assembly or wire harness production workflow.
