Review on Efficient Crimping Made Easy: TICONN Heat Shrink Connector Crimping Tool by Leonard Herrera

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Does not have any other instructions, difficult to adjust

No instructions other then what is in above ad. This tool is not easy to adjust. You unscrew the screw near the star adjustment wheel and have to open and close the crimper to adjust. But how far to adjust is anyones guess. One setting literally crushes the terminal flat. One setting leaves a small gap and one setting leaves a bigger gap. Overall not easy to see or tell which setting is too much or too little other than pulling on the wire after crimping. If the wire comes out it wasn’t enough and you just wasted a terminal.

Pros
  • Simple setup
Cons
  • No-cut insulation feature leaves insulation frayed
