Hi all,
I had a question about roll crimping earlier in this thread. I contacted BPI and here is the response I received.
Thanks for your inquiry.
A Roll crimp typically adds less pressure to the load than does a fold crimp.
The standard rule of thumb is ‘ you can roll crimp a fold crimp load, but do not fold crimp as roll crimp load’.
Now with that in mind, we do not recommend roll crimping a fold crimp load if the published pressure is near 10,000 psi or more, just in case something goes wrong.
Regards,
Dick Oftedal
