Hi,
I've only ever used, or seen, the 3 prong indent crimps for pyro, but picked up some pyro bits at a boot sale recently. The crimper produces an almost full crimp as shown, with just four uncrimped parts for the compound to squeeze out. Anyone know if this is an old style imperial crimper or if it's ok to use on metric pots? IR on the sample tested out OK, and you definitely can't pull the disc out!
Thanks.
