Review on Hydraulic Battery Terminal Crimper Crimping by Levi Stewart

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Suitable for different wire gauges.

I used this crimping tool to crimp 4 AWG, 8 AWG and 10 AWG terminals and Anderson connectors. It has delivered every time and I've been able to make great connections without having to re-crimp or lose connectors. The crimping tool is included and the guide is handy and necessary to know what size die is needed for different wire sizes. The tool could have been a little more balanced to make it easier for one person to get the job done. I don't find it difficult to use when working with wiring in a shop, but a one-man job becomes a challenge when you're running wiring in a car, for example, and need to crimp the ends of terminals at odd angles or in tight spaces. In such cases, it is desirable to have a second person hold the wire and clamp, although this is not necessary. I can't comment on the durability of the device as I've only had it for a short time, but so far it hasn't let me down.

Pros
  • SPECIFICATION: Crimps copper and aluminum wires from 12 AWG to 2/0 AWG. Crimping range from 4 to 70 mm2. Maximum crimping capacity: 10 tons.
Cons
  • I will add later
