Disclosed is a two-step method for crimping a contact ( 1 ) comprising a sleeve ( 7 ), the sleeve being provided with a cylindrical portion ( 14 ) and a truncated portion ( 18 ), about one end ( 2 ) of a cable ( 3 ) inserted in this sleeve. In the first step, the cylindrical portion is crimped around bared strands ( 10 ) of the cable by means of a first jaw ( 12 ). In a second step, while the crimping pressure exerted during the first step is maintained, a second jaw ( 13 ) is shifted axially along the sleeve so as to apply stress to outer walls of the tapering portion along the bared strands of the cable and also along a sheath ( 11 ) of the cable.
