RS PRO Hand Ratcheting Crimp Tool for Insulated Spade Connectors, 0,75 → 6mm² Wire, Обжимные клещи

RS PRO Comfort Grip Crimp Tool for Pre-insulated Terminals

A strong and powerful crimp tool for insulated terminals/connectors with a cable range of 0.75 to 6.0 mm2/AWG 22 to 10. The crimp operation is effortless, take the striped wire and add the terminal of your choice and crimp a symmetrical oval crimp.
Requiring a greatly reduced hand force due to the unique mechanism the tool allows for both single and two-handed operation. The non-slip allows leverage against a work surface and the built-in ratchet mechanism ensures the jaws fully close to complete the crimp before the finished termination can be released.
Easy to use and if miscrimps or obstructions occur simply use the ratchet release for quick removal
The RS PRO crimping tool operated with insulated terminal types, also known as Red, Blue and Yellow terminal. See stock numbers 534-238, 534-597, 534-468.

What is the difference between un-insulated and insulated crimp tools?

Un-insulated crimp tools are typically used for general applications, whereas the insulated crimp tools have been VDE tested up to 1000 V, designed for use where electrical current is present.

The Importance of a High-Quality Crimp

When a crimping tool is used on a terminal, two crimps take place at the same time. One is the electrical connection between the conductor and terminal. The other is the insulation crimp which provides strain relief against vibration and tension. It is important that the electrical connection is gas-tight without any voids between the wire strands and the terminal. If there any voids present, then corrosion can occur causing resistance and excessive heat which damages the electrical connection. Using a good quality crimping tool will ensure that a full, gas-tight crimp is produced preventing future deterioration of the electrical connection and insulation breakage.
