But I thought hex crimpers were for coax, or can you use with special ferrules ?

I have lost a set of those ones with the red handles, they are perfectly good and all you'll ever need for domestic work. They were less than ÂŁ50 though
got one for insulated.
red
blue
yellow
i borrow one 350mm one for upto 25mm and firm has another for upto 95mm but crimping 75mm is difficult with it so when i need one ill get a hydralic one
These work fine for uninsulated lugs:

honest mistake, the biggest cable i usually use is 25mm tails unless you count 27c control cables.70mm2 even!
I User the same Knipex ferrule crimping pliers as Shanky posted a link to and would also recommend them.
For insulated and uninsulated crimps i use Cembre crimpstars and have no problems with them at all.
nice one, at ÂŁ25 im ordering a set. well i speak to wholesalers tomorrow and see if they can beat the priceThat's the kiddies I had until they vanished.
I'm back from holiday and check if 16mm Earth cable fits in earth block.........
of course it does, you were right.
Job was a little while ago, I was actually crimping an eyelet on 16mm cable to connect to piranha nut.
Sorry for confusion.
