Excellent customer service

Most importantly, you don't need a heavy crimping tool like a hydraulic block, or a double-rotating tool like a bolt cutter, or even large pliers. These terminals aren't that thick, but rubbish, flimsy, cheap, nameless multifunctional crimping tools don't work, nobody should use them for anything, EVER. You only need a quality tool to crimp bare 10G connectors, such as B. Klein 1019. 10 G is a limitation for most tools, so 8 G increases the compressive strength requirement. HOWEVER, these terminals are not thick enough to warrant the use of a tool designed for fastening heavy duty terminals for car batteries, solar panels, etc. As discussed above, the body of these terminals is long and requires TWO crimps of tools such as those above. I have a feeling most have enough arm strength to properly crimp these terminals on a workbench; In a limited space that only fits one hand, a crimping tool with a longer handle/lever length and possibly a ratchet may be considered. The first order was lost from the packaging, but a split, empty bubble envelope still arrived. Not sure how I originally tried to contact the seller as I was so nervous but an email was returned saying the address was not receiving emails. So I wrote a bad review about how I received the blank bubble envelope. I may have been in a hurry, but I was upset again and had no reason. The seller replied to my review and talked for a long time, within an hour the seller agreed to send a free replacement order. The seller was very accommodating and only asked for photos. The replacement order came 2 days later, so I could continue working on the project.

Pros
  • Power cable clamps
Cons
  • Not as thick as other lockpicks
