Die positions: Full crimp — the dies close over the whole length of the ferrule. Crimp to knurl — the dies are set up to the knurled band on the ferrule, not over its full length.
Measuring a finished crimp.
The crimper’s dial is a setting, not a result. Tooling wear and die tolerances move the finished diameter, so every first crimp of a run gets measured. Why it matters is in crimp too tight, crimp too loose.
01
Let it settle
Measure after the crimper has released and the ferrule has sprung back. A reading taken in the dies is not the finished diameter.
02
Halfway between ridges
Set the caliper jaws on the flat between two die ridges, never on a ridge. Ridges read high.
03
Twice, at 90°
Take two readings at right angles to each other. A crimp that is oval by more than the published tolerance is not round, whatever the average.
04
Compare, then decide
Inside the published limits, the assembly goes on to proof test. Outside them, it does not go into service: cut it off and remake it.

Fitting series in the chart.
A series is a family of fittings made to one ferrule design. The same thread and the same hose can need a different crimp in a different series.

Still not sure
If the chart does not settle it, send us the part.
A photograph and two measurements are usually enough for us to name the fitting, the hose or the crimp setting, and quote the replacement the same day.

What to send
- A photo of each end, with a rule or calipers in shot
- The thread O.D. and the pitch, if you have a gauge
