Twidec/Wire Crimping Pliers 26-16AMG Wire Crimping Tools with Ratchet,Manual Crimp Fold Tool For Open Barrel Terminal Connectors, Electrical Crimping Tool SN-48B

Did you ever need to crimp a spade-type wire connector and wanted it to look professional, and more importantly, something you could be proud of doing? The Twidec/Wire Crimping Pliers 2.8/4.8/6.3 mm Spade 26-16AMG Crimping Tool is just the gadget for us amateur electrical hobbyists. In fact, the crimping tool is so good that it wouldn't surprise me if it is used professionally as well. Easy to use, it works on 2.4, 4.8 and 6.3 mm Spade-type lugs on wire sizes from 26 to 16 AMG. A good deal for the price and delivered on time. It might be something you should consider for an aspiring electrical tech. Or purchase it for yourself like I did.

There are better crimpers out there, but as a hobbyist who doesn't want to pay more than $10 for a 100-pack of cheap flag terminals, these are a great match. When using 18-22awg terminals with 22awg wire I will fold the wire back on itself before inserting it into the terminal for a better crimp, but most of the crimps pass the pull test, and if they don't crimping it a second time makes the connection solid. I don't know if I would trust them with high current or in applications prone to vibration (HVAC) but for my needs they fit the bill.

I wish I had one of these many years ago. Makes perfect crimps. Perfect looking, well made crimps and so easy!

Great kit, came with a wide variety of terminal ends. The crimper tool works well. You do need to be careful with aligning the wire end so you get a perfect crimp.

If you need to repair or rebuild any automotive wiring, this kit is a MUST HAVE!!

Didn't know how bad i needed this tool its a game changer for wiring jobs big and small

I had a very hard time making this work for JST SM pins, so I bought an iCrimp model https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OMM4YUY that works much better. Is it possible this is just not the right tool? It was recommended when I bought the JST plugs and pins.

These are nice to have on hand
