Does what it's supposed to do

Bought this to make some rails for my pier mainly to support poles and it works great. The included hardware is easy to use and works well. I don't have a crimping tool or wire cutters, but I was able to crimp with a punch and a heavy hammer. I used a cold chisel to cut the wire. Would buy again.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Cable too large for crimp sleeves

Cable too large for crimp sleeves. The inner diameter of the crimp barrels is 0.14 inch. The cable is nominally 0.13 inches long, leaving only 1/100 inch of slack. If you cut the cable, the cores diverge to an even larger diameter, and I couldn't fit the cable into the sleeve. I'm sending it back.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Functionality

Tips are the wrong size!

While this set looks great, the lugs are too small for a standard cable crimping tool. The inside of the ferrule is the correct size for 1/8" wire, but the wall of the ferrule is too thin. This means that when crimped with an appropriate tool, the ferrule will not be fully crimped and the wire WILL BE PUSHED OUT of it underneath Last The left tip comes with this kit, and the right tip is a standard 1/8" tip found at the hardware store.

Pros
  • Handy part
Cons
  • Nothing here
