Professional Ratcheting Wire Crimper

To be I thought these would be a great tool to use , but they are just too small and hard to use. Yes compact but just too fiddly.

... however I'm NOT a fan of the pass-through RJ45 plugs, they just take me personally too long thr thread them, I can do 2-3 standard RJ45's in the same time it takes me to do 1 pass-through

Just be warned - these are not for pass thru plugs as there is no cutting blade for the crimping process

So the crimps work perfectly, no flaws and I love the ergonomics however I have two issues with the tool, 1 - the release switch is quite difficult to use, I would put a leaver instead of a twist know. 2 - despite various emails, I have yet to get the cat 5 cable stripper to work, it only works on cat 6 cable, I end up using some paper to strip cat 5 so I'm guessing a manufacturing defect in either the blade or crimps themselves

Does not cut the excess off when using pass through crimps. Win some lose some I guess

Easy to use and a nice small size excellent verbena in your pocket thanks.

Best set of crimpers I have ever owned. I have a set of much more expensive knipex crimpers, however these feel so much more ergonomic when you have hundreds of ends to make off. We specialise in IP CCTV and home automation and I honestly think I have already knocked off a few days in man time in the last few weeks.

Smaller size than most, feels like it will last an eternity and the blades are replaceable which is great…. It crimps the cables nicely but doesn’t cut the ends on a pass through cable…. So… it doesn’t matter that it’s small and compact as I have to have to carry another tool anyway! Can’t use the cable cutters to trim the ends as it cannot get close to the end of the plug dues to the crimp. Huge design flaw and I’m super annoyed that it’s came in that crap plastic wrapping that you have to cut to open as it destroys that packaging and any chance I had of returning it. The bits that work work nicely though, just a shame that the person who designed it has never actually made a pass through cable it seems. They even show a pass through cable in the advertising images….my mistake… the extra inch of cable is actually what you can expect it to leave you. My first (and last) Klein tool. Expensive mistake

Nice compact crimper, has the standards on the tool as 2ell for those that can't remember them.

Good product, no complaints

Ik had er meer van verwacht. Al enkele keren mijn oude kriptang maar weer gebruikt. Ver van Pro wat mij betreft.

Muito bom 😊😊😊😊

Just received these Crimpers, I made my first cable with them and they are working perfectly. I borrowed a pair of Ideal Crimpers from a friend and I feel like these do a slightly better job. The connection felt a little more secure . I was making Cat 6 cabling with QVS brand Cat 6 Jacks, these jacks do not have the back crimp that usually holds the wire into the jack ( I know cheap jacks LOL) with that being said while the crimpers did dimple the end it had no ill effect on the crimp or the jack at all. I tested the wire by plugging it in to the Router and the computer and it is what is providing the internet access to the computer i am writing this review on. The crimpers do have a little nob for release but you do not have to use it, simply press down a little harder and the crimpers will spring open. The cutter is located on the back side of the Crimps, one side says Strip and the other says cut. The cutters are comparable to any other cutter on crimps. The stripper portion works but you will need to be very careful not to cut through the cables located behind the outside jacket. With that being said I have made many wires with other crimpers and none of them have stripped the wire well, I do not rely on any all in one crimps to cut and strip wire, I use a pair of small side cuts to cut the wire and the jacket. These crimpers do the job and feel extremely well made, i love the size and how they lock down when not is use. I whole heartily recommend these crimpers they will get the job done and feel great in my hand.
