U-type copper dies intended for making cULus classified crimps when used with a compatible compact crimper (consult crimper user manual for the chart of compatible dies and connectors). The dies have laser-etched and color-coded size markings and imprint the wire size onto the connector after a completed crimp cycle. Connectors and the crimper are sold separately.
Project Ideas
Business
Custom 2/0 Cable Assembly Shop
Offer made-to-order 2/0 battery cables for solar, marine, RV, and backup power users. Use the 2/0 Copper U-Die Set with the DEWALT DCE310 to produce cULus-classified crimps (with compatible connectors), and market the laser-etched size imprint as visible quality assurance. Provide online length, color, and lug-hole options.
Mobile Crimping Service (Marine/Fleet)
Launch a van-based service that visits marinas, trucking depots, and off-grid sites to terminate or replace 2/0 cables on the spot. Promote fast, code-conscious, cULus-classified crimps using the correct connectors and the DCE310/U-die combo, with photo documentation of each lug’s size imprint.
Prewired Battery Interconnect Kits
Sell kits of pre-crimped 2/0 jumpers for common battery layouts (48V banks, RV duals, boat house banks). Each connector bears the die-imprinted size, helping installers and inspectors verify terminations. Include torque labels and QR-linked test reports for a premium, inspection-ready product.
Compliance Upgrade and QA Reports
Provide inspection and remediation of existing high-current terminations in generator rooms, telecom, and solar combiner/battery enclosures. Replace suspect lugs with cULus-classified crimps using the 2/0 U-die and compatible connectors, then deliver a photo-rich report highlighting imprinted size marks and pass/fail checklists.
Crimper + Die Rental with Onboarding
Rent out a DEWALT DCE310 with the 2/0 U-die and a starter pack of compatible connectors to licensed contractors. Include a quick-reference compatibility chart, short onboarding session, and a per-project QC checklist emphasizing the die’s post-crimp size imprint as proof of correct termination.
Creative
Vanlife Power Hub Showcase
Design a clean, transparent power hub for a camper van that features neatly routed 2/0 AWG battery cables and lugs crimped with the 2/0 Copper U-Die Set and a compatible DEWALT DCE310 crimper. The die’s imprinted wire size on each connector doubles as a design element and proof of proper termination, making the installation both functional and display-worthy.
Copper-Connector Lamp Sculpture
Create an industrial art lamp that uses short runs of 2/0 cable and copper lugs as visible structural accents. Each lug is crimped with the U-die so the wire size imprint is part of the aesthetic. Pair with low-voltage LED drivers and showcase the industry-standard color coding as a deliberate design palette.
Portable Solar Generator Build
Build a Pelican-case style solar generator with a clear panel that reveals 2/0 battery interconnects and bus connections terminated using the U-die set. The stamped size markings become an educational feature, showing proper, cULus-classified crimps (with compatible connectors and crimper) for a show-and-tell power box.
High-Current Audio Demo Board
Assemble a car-audio demo stand with a high-output amplifier and distribution block wired using 2/0 AWG cable. Use the U-die’s color coding and the post-crimp size imprint to create a tidy, professional-looking layout that enthusiasts can photograph and learn from at meets or in the shop.
Marine Battery Locker Makeover
Refit a small boat’s battery locker with properly sized 2/0 cables and lugs crimped using the DEWALT DCE310 and the 2/0 U-die. The imprinted wire size on each connector helps with future service and adds a crisp, professional finish for before/after content.
