January 16, 2015

Tregaskiss has improved the crimp on our heavy duty (HD) nozzle offering. The profile on the crimping dies that form the ring crimp has been narrowed from a pad length of 0.450″ to a pad length of 0.390″ (see image below). This change significantly improves the quality of the crimp since it allows for enhanced integrity of the nozzle insulator.
