This is a decent crimp set with lots of sizes of ferrules to crimp.
The crimp tool itself has a six way crimp, which works well with very small crimps.
On the larger pieces, it has a tendency to make a triangle shape, with one side sticking out a bit. Not sure if this is me or the tool!
Also, it would have been nice for the set to have a case.
Overall, it does it’s job just fine.
Got these instead of a very expensive pair ( ck) and they look identical and they even crimp the same, brilliant little design and it crimps in a hex pattern so it fits in all terminal blocks weather round or square cant rate these highly enough.
In summary, the Bootlace Ferrule Crimping Tool offers precision and professionalism in crimping operations. Its durable construction, ease of use, and versatile crimping capacity make it a reliable tool for electrical and electronic projects. Whether you’re a professional electrician or an electronics enthusiast, this crimping tool provides consistent and secure crimps, ensuring reliable connections in your work.
Very impressed with this ferrule crimper seems very durable and robust and does a great job would recommend this product!
Fantastic tool, makes ferrules so good, nice hex shape. Easy to compress. I love using it.
For small wires that don’t take solder, this is the ideal terminal maker. Reliable, low resistance connection at each junction.
Great tool. Really tidies up the appearance of wiring jobs. makes coupling wires into same terminal so much easier. my new favourite tool
I bought this crimping tool as I needed to rewire a solar system that I installed last year. As I only needed it for a single project I didn’t want to spend too much. This crimping tool was priced affordably so was perfect for my needs.
I ended up using it for several jobs around the house, and used all the sizes from the 0.8mm^2 up to 16mm^2. Definitely worth it as it made the jobs much easier and tidier without any stray strands of wire getting in the way.
The only downside is that the crimp on the largest sized cables wasn’t even and perfectly square, but for the price I can’t complain.
Didn’t know I needed it til I had it. Works great crimping wires when working on 230V electrics. I’ve started to crimp everything and the connection is just so much better. The tools great and the crimps provided are handy. Never had one to compare with before but it’s really well made and works great for me. I’d buy this brand of tool again for sure
Very good and professional tool. High quality and strength. Easy to crimp and use the tool. One of my favorite. As an electrician I can recommend this tool for trade.
Should have bought one of these years ago, perfect for making sure your wiring is connected properly to the supply, no more twisting the wires and hoping you will get a good connection, with this you know you will get a good connection, OK, you have to buy the ferrules but they are cheap.
Very good crimper , strong and can crimp up to 16square cable
The crimpers work well, and there’s a good selection of ferrules. Nice, neat job.
Very good ratchet lock could have more travel before you have to go the full actio
Great quality at a bargain price, work just as expected, crimps well even up to 16mm cable .
La compramos para hacer unos cuadros de obra y la verdad que nos ha ido genial.
Os comento mis impresiones ….
UNBOXING
Pero antes miramos que trae la caja y la cotilleamos un poco.
En el exterior una caja con aspecto bastante industrial, con la herramienta en su frontal y sus funciones en pequeas fotos.
En el interior 2 cajitas, 1 con los 1.200 terminales y en la otra el alicate de presin.
Junto a las instrucciones de uso.
REACCIN
Al abrir la caja y cogerlo la primera sensacin es buena. Una herramienta robusta, bien fabricada y con un mango antideslizante.
Adems de bastante simple en su apriete, con su seguro para cuando la dejes de usar.
FUNCIONAMIENTO
Pues la verdad que es una herramienta bastante fcil de usar, adems de dejar unos acabados muy buenos entre terminal y cable.
Los cables estn diferenciados en secciones, segn su grosor. Pues estos terminales les pasa lo mismo. Segn su secion de cable as ser el que necesites.
Pelas la longitud necesaria para que lo cubra el terminal, emparejas cable-terminal y lo aprietas. Con una mano y sin nada de esfuerzo lo consigues.
UTILIDAD
Lo hemos usado sobre todo para cuadros elctricos, para que ningn pelo se quede suelto, los colores para sectorizar circuitos, adems de proteger al cable.
En regletas donde los cables van muy pegados unos a otros, es la mejor forma de tenerlos ordenados y sin que se toquen entre ellos.
Conclusin
Es la herramienta ideal para hacer trabajos de electricidad tanto en casa como de forma profesional. Es ligera, resistente y robusta.
Bien terminada , con un tacto de goma para no resbalar y con 1200 terminales para lo que necesites.
Espero haberte sido de ayuda con mi opinin de este alicate de terminales. Es una bueno opcin si buscas algo as.
Un saludo , gracias por leerme y ser muy felices .
Overall pretty satisfied with this tool, used it a few times now and seems to leave the bootlace ferrules in a good state. Although sometimes it can be a bit stiff but that could be just because it’s new.
The reduce the contact resistance between a terminal and the cable. They also reduce oxidation of the cable as the crimping action and sleeve helps keep oxygen out of the cable.
Ferrule ends also are generally easier to insert into a terminal. No twisting or loose strands of wire to worry about.
I’ve used a square ferrule crimping tool for some time now, and it’s great in rising clamp terminls, but not so good in round terminals. The square can be deformed easily, and in tight round terminal holes may not fit at all.
So I was on the look out for a hexagonal ferrule crimper, and this one fits the bill.
As the hexagonal shape is closer to a circle it allows a larger cable to fit easily in a round terminal.
Physically the tool is larger that the square crimper, but it can also accommodate slightly larger cable sizes. Certainly this should suit the home user, or even many professionals, accepting up to 16mm2 cable sizes.
It arrived neatly packed in a box, but this is just the tool, no storage bag or ferrule assortment.
Fortunately I already owned both of these, and there was even enough space in the bag to slip in both tools.
The multi lingual instructions are basic, but servicable.
Briefly I recommend finding the appropriate ferrule for the cable, the metal part should fit nicely over the cable and plastic boot over the cable sheath.
Measure the exposed metal part of the ferrule and strip the wire that much, plus a little allowance.
Slide the ferrule over the stripped wire all the way down. There should be some wire protruding from the end of the metal ferrule. If not, strip off some more.
Insert the ferrule into the tool and squeeze. This will be a hard squeeze for larger cable, but the tool feels robust and capable.
If the ferrule is longer than the jaws, then reposition and crimp again, taking care that the hex lines up, but this is unlikely with this wide jaw tool.
Finally, trim off the excess wire protruding from the ferrule, or indeed if the ferrule is longer than the terminal is deep, then trim off the excess ferrule with the wire inside.
The tool makes a good firm crimp on all size wires I have tried.
So far it feels robust and reliable, and hopefully this will continue to be the case.
Lovely. Easy to use and seams the plug holds well. I tried to remove it with pliers but I could not without damaging it. The plug shape is nice and more round. I compare it to my other crimping pliers I had before. That one shaped the plug to square and I was not sure about the safety.
Recommended.
Great addition to my toolbox. Ive had the old Previca ferrule crimps for years so decided to upgrade. The handles are comfy to hold and is easy to use when crimping. The new multipoint jaws give a better crimp on the ferrule and can cope with all the sizes I regularly use. Can’t go wrong with these and when doing multi core cables you can breeze through making the ends up and focus on getting machinery back up and running quicker. Save the time and hassle and get yourself a pair of these!
I chose this one as it has a 6 sided jaw. Others have a 4 sided jaw. I was concerned that by crimping cables into a square whoud be more difficult to fit into a round termial hole as the overall size would have increased. The 6 sided crimp is closer to a circle and seems to fit well in terminal blocks. I could not find this listed with a set of ferrels so had to order them seperately. A package price would have been better.
