Pros

Cons
  • Can cause strain on the wrist with prolonged use

You're getting what you pay for

You get what you pay for and it's about $20 worth of crapper (Crimper). There's a reason why the ones we use it work cost $69 and I found out really fast. Cheap hard plastic handles that will most likely crack if dropped, the crimping head rattles a little bit, and sometimes they do not give clean cuts which under mission critical circumstances could possibly cause grounding or interference issues. Considering the price I think you getting your money's worth. I would have returned them but I…

Pros
  • ‎HIIJA
Cons
  • The cutting blade may dull quickly

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well Built on my review.

These were a great set of crimpers. Comfortable in the hand. Able to make cables quickly. The blade to cut the wires works great to. I've had issues with these in other pairs I've gotten. Definitely worth the buy.

Pros
  • It works as it should. Definately worth what it costs.
Cons
  • Not recommended for high voltage applications

No instructions, connectors are junk

I haven’t used the crimping tool yet, because the connectors that came with it are utterly worthless. There’s no way to keep the wires in the proper order. Many of the reviews say that they are pass-through, but the ones I got are not. Now I’m going to have to go to the store and purchase better connectors to finish my job.

Pros
  • My RJ45 crimp tool works as expected for a good price.
Cons
  • The handle may loosen over time

Great tool in my review

This kit was wonderful. It's the first time I had ever made Ethernet cables, but the tool and instructions made it super easy. I would recommend this to anyone, especially someone just starting.I used a pair of needle nose pliers to line up the cut end of the wires and guide them into the end piece, which made things quite a bit easier.

Pros
  • Precision Crimping dies was made of high-carbon steel for Any Ethernet or Telephone Cable
Cons
  • Not suitable for delicate cables

Bargain Priced and easy to use

I previously had the standard crimp tool with the two piece connector. Pass through crimp tool is so much easier. One Caveat the connectors that came with the tool did not allow my CAT 6 outdoor cable wires to passthrough. They are 23 AWG, and were too wide. I had to purchase connectors with wider slots. All was good in the end and still highly recommend this tool.

Pros
  • Nice and sturdy. Easy to use. Works great.
Cons
  • The ratcheting mechanism can be loud

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to use and economical.

Came a day early. Fixed a broken cat5 cable so that I can use on my smart tv. Was easy to use but takes a little patience to get the wires in the correct order. One good squeeze and it was done. Great product for the price.

Pros
  • Had no issue with these so far, good connection
Cons
  • May be difficult to lock and unlock

Good Quality good for me

This has come in super handy on so many projects, I never thought I would use it as much as I do. Great quality and price too!

Pros
  • Cable Insertion & Extraction Tools
Cons
  • The stripping tool is not adjustable

It Works Perfectly best in my review

This crimping tool along with the pass-through clips made it so much easier to put ends on either net cable. I have the older ones but this made it so much easier to see the wires and do the crimping. I'm sold on this. Thanks.

Pros
  • Worked great for the couple terminations I needed to make. No previous experience, simple to use.
Cons
  • The cutting blade can be dangerous if not used properly

Works like a charm!

Tool is sturdy and solid. Plenty of connectors for a hobbyist. Only made two user errors and then two perfect crimps! Great value.

Pros
  • seems to be well made, sturdy. worked well to repair cable.
Cons
  • Could have been a better quality.

Great savings by making your own

I needed a 20 foot data cable and found it was much cheaper to buy this tool and raw cat 5e cable and to make my own than it was to buy one premade. And now, any additional cables I need are free. Instructions can easily be found on line for color order to assemble. Crimping tools at box stores were 2 to 3 times the cost.

Pros
  • It features a comfortable grip, making it easy to use for extended periods without causing discomfort or fatigue
Cons
  • The crimping dies may leave marks on the cables

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice and solid tool, quick and easy even for beginners.

Not much explanation necessary, just works as intended. Plenty of connectors if you make a mistake, and works for Cat6 as well which is what I needed.

Pros
  • It is a cost-effective solution for IT professionals or DIY enthusiasts who need an easy-to-use tool for crimping Cat5E and Cat6 cables
Cons
  • The crimping dies are difficult to clean

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent tool for the price (value).

I have used much more expensive crimping tools - but this one does a very good job at a fraction of the price. Also seems to be well-made and comes with some extra useful tools.

Pros
  • Excellent product. Very easy to use
Cons
  • Not suitable for crimping multiple cables at once

It worked! best in my review

It is a great product. I made my first Cat6 cable with this crimping tool and RJ-45 connectors. It worked and I was so excited. I can't wait to replace all my Cat 5 cables with Cat 6 cables using this wonderful crimping tool. I received it the day after next, very timely. I highly recommended it.

Pros
  • With its precise crimping capabilities and easy-to-use design, the Advanced Hiija Ratcheting RJ45 Crimp Tool is an essential tool for anyone who needs to crimp Cat5E and Cat6 cables quickly and efficiently
Cons
  • Not suitable for use with shielded connectors

Good quality.but best in my review

The only reason this product got 4/5 cause there was no instructions included in the kit. I think the manufacture should really considering adding it to increase customer satisfaction. A diagram with a description of each tool would help so much.

Pros
  • Good Product for a Good Price!
Cons
  • The ratcheting feature can slip during use

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good tool, no instructions

One reason I purchased this tool was because of instruction card shown in ad. Tool worked as it should, but it came with absolutely no instructions as shown in ad. Tool function was obvious and straight forward but I had to go online for wire color oreintation which is what the instruction card shown in the ad was suppose to provide. Not a big deal, just frustrating. Connectors and boots were of decent quality. Every attempt was successful, no redos required.

Pros
  • Fast, reliable crimp tool with steel body construction for durability with ergonomic comfort grips
Cons
  • The stripping tool may break easily

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Does a really good job for low cost.

i liked the fact that this crimper will do what it is suppose to do for a lower price than I could find anywhere. Also given the added value of the terminal ends and boots made this deal even sweeter. I recommend this to any "do it yourselfer" that has need to do the occasional crimp job to make or repair a cable.

Pros
  • ‎RJ45 Crimp Tool
Cons
  • Not suitable for outdoor use

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product because it's easy to use and works flawlessly

This tool is great for terminating cable. I would highly recommend to all my friends. This is not a bot message. I am 100% real and this crimp tool is worth the money.

Pros
  • Our Worry-Free 18-Month Warranty and Toll-Free Tech Support, and friendly customer service.
Cons
  • The crimping dies are difficult to change

Works well in my review

The pass-thru connectors definitely cut down on errors when crimping RJ-45s because you can see the colors much more clearly than you can with conventional sealed-end connectors. It seems that several manufacturers have caught onto this. My only warning is that an open-end connector isn't the best choice for damp environments.

Pros
  • Electrical
Cons
  • The handle may get slippery when working with lubricated cables
