Cables Direct OnlineDeluxe Coax Compression Connector Adjustable Tool for RG59 RG6 F BNC RCA

It services the purpose.

Product is pretty heavy duty, luckily i read the reviews, upon getting it new you have to adjust the adjuster to make sure it fits your fitting, i closed the crimper and then measured the room of the "crimpable part" of the connector and made sure it only pressed up until that point. people that dont WARNING: know how to use it or measure it before trying to use this compression crimpor or you may break the center piece if you arent careful as this tool has no "release" to "spring back" the crimpers. dont rely on the cutters as they work but they are centered in the tool instead of being on the outer edge. If you adjust it right, the crimping part is pretty effortless, just a little squeeze and it crimps. Seems like its made very well and seems like its built to last as long as you take care of it and dont get it wet. Feels heavy duty. This seems to be the exact same tool as the "Etekcity Multifunctional Coax Compression Connector Adjustable Tool" at a cheaper price just because its just "unbranded". i almost bought the Klein Tools VDV211-063 which i got to test at home depot, the klien was $40 more and didnt crimp other compression connectors and the Klien felt kind of cheap almost like a toy. i took a gamble on this $15 crimper and i feel it was very well worth the money, i feel i got more for my money than buying the Klien just for the name.Pros:-Adjustable so it will crimp most F compression connectors-Crimps multiple connectors RG59 RG6 ( 3C 4C 5C ) F BNC RCACons:-NO Release if the crimper gets "stuck" from mis-measuring the adjuster, in other words if it wont "push in any further" and your fitting is stuck, there is no release-The Wire CUTTER is worthless as its in the center of the tool and its hard to cut edges of wires because its centered in the tool

gets the job done

This is a good solid tool. Might take a little adjustment to make it work with the selected connectors.

Awesome, MUCH appreciated time and knuckle saving Compression tool!I usually make or retrofit tools and adapters when the needs arise. But in this case, I could see where I very well could have burned through 40 hours and $60 or $70 easily to do what this simple tool does.And it does what it's supposed to very well.. I very much appreciate the simplicity and functionality that went into this, apparently quite popular design.Not sure how well it would up doing 50+ cables a day. But at the rate of maybe 10 cables per decade that I do, I am fairly confident that it will last..Thanks goes out to the Design Team for this one! Thanks for saving me a weeks worth of frustration!
