Hand Crimper

The importance of properly crimped wires isn’t always appreciated until after you’ve experienced the results of the technique, so keep yourself ready for any circumstance with quality hand crimpers. These are useful in any situation where your wiring and cables are supported by supporting joists and other structural features.

Common Mistakes People Make About Wire Rope Crimpers

Hand rope crimpers are excellent and helpful tools, but they require proper usage for best effects.

• A crimp is only as good as the material. Always ensure that you’re using high-quality wire, such as stainless steel, and strong terminals. If your terminals or wire are inappropriately sized, they may not perform as well as you anticipate.
• “Measure twice, crimp once.” In addition to the materials, you must use wires cut to the correct length. If they are too short, the added strain can warp your structure or reduce the effectiveness of the rigging. If they are too long, the opposite problem occurs, and you have slackness on the wire.
• Take the opportunity to become familiar with your rope crimpers in a safe, low-pressure setting. Experience and comfort with the tool is essential for effective use either on the water or job site when it’s time to act swiftly. Always have the best tool to hand for the job you need to do.

These tips go a long way to prepare you for effective use of your hand crimping tools.
