Review on πŸ”§ Gaobige Coaxial Compression Tool Kit: Adjustabale Crimper for rg6 rg59 rg11 75-5 75-7 Coaxial Cable, Includes Coaxial Cable Stripper and 10pcs F Compression Connectors - Blue by Ronald Ingram

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It might be GAOBIGE, but it's not junk! However, the included connections are not very good.

Despite the funny name, this coax stripper/crimper works great. In that sense, the instructions are charmingly mundane, but they tell you how. You might want to watch some YouTube videos to understand this. The main downside is that the small stripper blade insert has a tendency to pop out if you're not careful. The end connectors that came with it gave me a lot of trouble, they were VERY difficult to snap onto the cable. I've watched various videos on this and even bought a small compression tool, but ended up making some Klein Tools connectors 100x easier and worked great with the same tool. So maybe ignore them unless you're He-Man or She-Ra (or NonBinary-StrongPerson?), or maybe you have other cords. However, the tool itself is fully functional and compared to other coax crimping tools it is *excellent* value for money. .Also you can pronounce GAOBIGE in fake New York Access. "This cable is GAOBIGE!"
