Just one more thing to add - the Klein crimper is designed for crimping uninsulated terminals (nothing with a plastic "sleeve" around it - it will go right through that and crimp the metal below it) This is fine since most terminations come with "boots" to hide the crimp, or you can use heat-shrink tubing to cover the crimp.
Quality Crimpers
Hello Folks,
Do any of you know of a source which makes-sells good quality Crimpers that do a correct job, and doesn't butcher a standard style Spade Lug termination?
In the past for mid-fi quality jobs, I've used the run of the mill Standard Electrician's Crimpers/Strippers, and the quality of crimping IMO is horrible to say the least.
Of course also, I'm not looking to drop "WBT" dollars on a crimping tool-device to do some DIY Speaker Cables, and would like to find something good, yet reasonably priced. Thanks, Mark
