Line 13: A DuPont crimp consists of two parts, 0.1” (2.54mm) housing and separate metal crimp terminal. The AWG for wire generally used is 22, 24, 26 or 28 (standard ribbon cable) and a maximum diameter of 1.57mm.<ref>Molex data sheet [http://www.molex.com/webdocs/datasheets/pdf/en-us/0008500114_CRIMP_TERMINALS.pdf 08-50-0114]</ref><ref>Molex data sheet [http://www.molex.com/webdocs/datasheets/pdf/en-us/0008520072_CRIMP_TERMINALS.pdf 08-52-0072]</ref> Using the proper crimping tool makes a good crimp joint easy.
