haisstronica 6PCS Crimping Tool Set, Interchangeable Terminal Dies

Bought: Haisstronica 6PCS Crimping Tool Set Ok, Like many of you I have been using those cheap thin metal striper/crimpers that come in every electrical "kit" you ever buy. You can also buy those in stores and are fairly inexpensive, sometimes downright cheap. And to use them to crimp anything means hurting your hand from the pressure and that crappy thin metal. On to this tool and set: I paid $54.99 for this item and at time of review some 10 months later it is $49.99. That seems excessive or expensive however you know the old saying, you get what you pay for. Here you get so much more. It this set you get the crimping tool and 6 sets of dies. It says 6ps because die A is installed on the tool during arrival. The case it comes in is fairly cheap plastic but is more than enough for what you need. However I think the snaps that close it are poor. They are the standard molded on snaps that come with most things that wear over time and break and since they are molded on you cannot replace them. That's really the only con to this set. I opted for this set and not the one that comes with a screw driver because who doesn't already have a screwdriver in their tool kit? Anyways, the Tool feels great in the hand is VERY confrontable. The handle is molded plastic with rubber grips. Crimping pressure (how far down it crimps) is adjustable. The crimper uses a ratchet method so you don't accidently slip. This also lets you increase hand pressure a little at a time which is wonderful. When you hit the full crimp pressure the tool automatically unlocks releasing pressure. If in the event you cannot get full pressure to release there is a bar latch in-between the handles you can use to release the ratchet tension. The dies that it comes with are very wide for an even and professional crimp every time. Those cheap crimpers you get other places only crimp in a tiny spot which means sometimes you have to crimp then connector twice or more! Not with this tool, once and done! Changing dies is extremely easy. Just use a Philipps head screwdriver to remove two screws, one on the top die and one on the bottom. then change dies and replace screws. in the event you lose a screw, this set comes with two EXTRA screws! How awesome is that? This set also comes with almost every die you will need. I mostly use Insulated connecters so I mainly use die A but sometimes use others. I thought I'd never use the Solar connector Die but just recently actually used it and it worked wonderfully! Incase you forget what die is used for what, this little kit comes with a card with pictures of every die and the types of connecters each die is used for and wire sizes. that is EXTREAMLY helpful. The dies are each labeled A,B,C, ext. Also the case which holds the dies is also labeled in each slot for A,B,C, ext. So there is no confusing where each die goes or what they are used for. In conclusion, this set is well worth the money paid for it and is extremely helpful and comfortable to use. Not only that but it gives a good solid professional crimp every time. I have used this set hundreds of times. I have also installed 2 stereos in 2 different cars using this set and it was such a great tool to use. It not only made the job easier but it also made the job more solid and reliable. So please do yourself a favor and get this set, you will not regret it!

I've used a few sets of dies and multiple crimps on these since purchase. They provide consistent results that are above my expectations for a non-brand name. The included case seems to be decent. If there was any thought of failure, it would be the clips that secure the case lid. If I can change anything about these, it would be a larger case with better latches that allowed for expansion and more dies to be added. Although this affects absolutely nothing of my current needs, it's just nice to have a little bit of expansion room for additional parts and crimps.

The crimping set came in a nice plastic case, containing all six sets of crimps and two extra screws for replacement of the originals, if needed. Everything arrived clean and well-oiled. I used three of the six crimps on a recent project, and I'm quite impressed. Each of the crimps do their job very well and changing them out is barely a hassle, just 2 screws. Overall, a great tool to have that should last you for life if you treat it right.

This wire crimping set works pretty well. I had to swap out the die and the phillips head screws holding the dies in place wore extremely tight. I actually had to use a manual impact hammer screwdriver to remove the screws in order to replace the die. Additionally, the crimp adjuster didn't work so great on larger gauge 10 AWG and 12 AWG wire.

This crimping tool made my wire crimping look like a pro! It is so beneficial to have all the various crimping dies, and they install easily and securely. This set was a great buy for me!

This is a great product at a great price. Used it for open barel connectors on my jeeps camshaft position sensor. Made for a great strong crimp that will handle the forces of offroading.

Works great easy to use

Wow, I am seriously impressed with this crimper! After getting this out of the included storage case, I used the heat shrink crimping jaws to crimp a heat shrink spade connector on a 16 AWG wire, and it worked perfectly the first time. Then I changed the jaws to the insulated connector jaws, and I crimped an insulated connector onto a 20 AWG wire, and it worked perfectly the first time. That is two for two, on two different style crimp connectors, with excellent crimp quality and holding power! I have never had that type of success with any other crimpers I have used. I'm definitely looking forward to continuing to use these, and expect that they will work very well for my occasional wiring needs. Changing the jaws was pretty quick and easy with a screwdriver. However, one slight challenge I had with that, is lining the top and bottom insulated connector Jaws up with each other. I say slight challenge, because it really was just a small challenge/inconvenience. If I seated both the jaws fully into the crimper, then the two jaws weren't perfectly aligned with each other. What I did to remedy that, was simply to tighten down the bottom jaw, and then align the top jaw with the bottom jaw before tightening it down. No big deal, and seem to work very well. This is a good one, just like the many other positive reviews show!

Premiers tests très concluants sur les cosses isolées. Mâchoires "B" Dommage qu'il est necessaire d'utiliser un tournevis pour le changement des mâchoires. Mais ces modèles sont plus chers.

Buon prodotto ma non adatto al lavoro, per uso privato ok

Die Crimpzange macht einen stabilen und wertigen Eindruck. Ich habe bisher erst 10mm2 unisolierte Kabelschuhe damit gekrimpt, kann also zu den anderen (auswechselbaren) Backen noch nichts sagen. Das hat jedenfalls einwandfrei funktioniert.

Works fantastic. I work in marine electrical and this has been a time saver. Crimps with the right force for a secure connection and delicately enough not to tear the heat shrink outer sheath of the crimps. I’d recommend it.

Crimping worked flawlessly. I recommend this tool, it is very versatile and not that expensive.
