KNIPEX Self-Adjusting Crimping Pliers for wire ferrules with lateral access (180 mm) 97 53 14

Automatically crimp end sleeves of between 0.08 mm2 and 10.0 mm2 correctly

Crimping errors are almost impossible –the right profile size automatically

For reasons of design, it was a challenge to cover the wide capacity range of 0.08 to 10.0 mm2 using just one pair of crimping pliers. The crimping is easily carried out by the user and the result is technically sophisticated: the hexagonal profile of the crimped end sleeves (ferrules) and cable is particularly suitable where connection dimensions are tight. Knipex has applied for a patent for the design and the operation of these crimping pliers.

Crimping of end sleeves (ferrules): self-adjusting and of course accurate

Accurate work is called for when crimping end sleeves (ferrules). Adjustment to the desired size of the end sleeves is automatic with the Knipex 97 53 14 crimping pliers. The user does not need to measure manual force when crimping because the integral lock with release mechanism ensures that the right amount of pressure automatically reaches the end sleeve. The pliers are optimally set (calibrated) in the factory.

Hand-friendly work, also with large conductor cross-sections up to 10 mm2

The transmission ratio of these crimping pliers has been well-designed and is therefore hand-friendly; it provides a comfortable grip width. A toggle lever effectively supports manual force. This enables conductors with large cross-sections to be assembled well even in the case of extensive instalations – also with twin end sleeves (ferrules) up to 2 x 4 mm2 or 2 x AWG 10. The conductors are reliably connected to the end sleeves using a square profile – in all designated sizes.
