On the third use, both tips broke off.

Via this tool with the intention of attaching some CV trunk clamps to one of my cars. After the first second clamp is ok, the tool will start to loosen a little when the third clamp is tightened and you will understand exactly why the tool is loose. The tool tips broke the tip and now it's scrap.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Very cheap. Bent and broken on second use.

Crimp bent on second use. After flipping it back and trying again, the whole ear broke and came loose from the center screw. They were used by OEM CV trunk clamps. Spend a little more and get a quality set. If they break in the middle of work, you won't be able to assemble the car until you get a replacement. Do not take any risks.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Definitely a cheap device, don't buy it!

Glad I bought this tool to crimp the boots on the dust boots of two driveshaft axles I was repairing. When I first tried to use the tool, it held and squeezed the first clamp, but the tool's arm was bent at an angle. I straightened it as far as I could and tried to crimp the next clip when one of the teeth was fully bent. The product is made of very cheap metals and not worth it. Buy the best tool to get the job done, or better let a professional do it with their tools.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
