ck crimp tools

[Sparky_Ben]

Has any one used the above and how do you find them, looking at the larger set which will crimp upto 25mm un-insualted crimps.?

thanks in advance

Been told to look for hexagonal crimpers rather than indent, except maybe on trirated.

Friend got a nice set, upto 50mm I think, from Western electrical, compact enough to fit in tool box as well.

I wrote the part no down on a drill case but thats in the container, Ill see if I can get it for you on monday.

Davidco, Klauke also do em but they are around £100.

Indent crimp heads are good up to 25mm, 35mm and above i would always go with hexagonal die crimping. Ratchet hand crimping gets a bit like heavy work over 25mm, all of our crimper's for the heavier cable sizes are hand or machine hydrolic servo units.... Which start getting very expensive to buy...lol!!

agree with E54.I do have a set of largeindent crimpers on the van, but only for emergencys, if our hydraulic hex crimpers are lent out, or broken.
