Is that a no?rubbish. you need a ratchet crimping tool. price varies from DIY toos under £20 to professional one scosting around £60 -£80. generallyit's a different tool for non insulated.

What kind of work do you want to do with them?
You can, they just don't do a very good job. They tend to mess up the terminals and it is hard to get the correct crimping force to make sure the connection is sound.What are for then ?
I need to crimp car speaker wires.
Can I use one of these:
These are like Rolls Royce of crimps.and here'sminefor insulated crimps. best ones i ever bought although they were about £65.
apart from the quality. the jaws are a lot slimmer than most, so you can crimp each end separately without the tool overlapping to the other end.These are like Rolls Royce of crimps.
Those are for ferrules, fitted to the ends of fine stranded cables.Are these good for crimping insulated or non-insulated ?
