DJ,Here is what my tool from ATS measures out to. The gauge is simply a "go" gauge.If a slot of the following width can slip over the major dimension of eachgroove of the compressed part of the nicopress, then it is good to go.1/16" oval sleeve both are .185"1/16" stop sleeve3/32" oval sleeve all three are .256"3/32" stop sleeve1/8" stop sleeve1/8" oval sleeve all four are .340"5/32" stop sleeve3/16" stop sleeve7/32" stop sleeveIt appears that the AC 43 merely has the go no go for the swaged type cable ends.Seems the book could have been better by including the above dimensions consideringall the useless sneers it contains about safety.chris bobka________________________________________________________________________________
