Anyone has still more tips on this? Specifically from shops in EU?
Crimping Furutech FP203R spades
Hi All,
Quick question; Have any of you crimped Furutech FP203(R) spades, what did you use for a crimping tool?
Thanks for any input, these are very nice spades, heavy duty! My Klein rachet crimpers are no match for the FP203(R) spades.

Same answer as in June of 2020. It looks like the link from then expired but this is the same tool I linked previously and still use, and it is not too expensive. Amazon has quite a few different models here. Still using with those crimped FP203 spades, for probably around 10 years now, and and they still holding up just fine. However, I wouldn't argue with soldering them. |
Belt and suspenders; a simple battery cable lugging tool - Anchor sells one - u use a hammer. Advise a bit of silver contact enhancer and solder. Also… i believe as many ( but not all ) that lower mass spades sound better and w reasonable binding post pressure will result in a gas tight connection… ymmv
