Crimping pliers for wire ferrules 0.25 to 16.0 mm² with nine half-round dies, 180 mm - Knipex 97 71 180

Anyone making up everything in a distribution board, from the control cable to the supply line, needs a wide cross-section range in a single tool. These crimping pliers crimp wire ferrules from 0.25 to 16.0 mm² in nine marked half-round dies and weigh only 205 g.

Benefits

• Nine marked dies cover 0.25 to 16.0 mm², equal to AWG 24 to 6, so a second tool for large cross-sections is not needed.
• Particularly deep dies with conical side faces grip the ferrule over its full length and join it reliably to the conductor.
• Crimping to DIN 46228 parts 1 + 4, so the connection is demonstrably standard compliant.
• The optimised transmission ratio makes crimping easy even at 16.0 mm².
• Light and slim design at 180 x 49 x 15 mm and 205 g, the tool reaches into crowded terminal compartments.
• The model is also available as a VDE version for work on live parts.

Areas of use

Electrical installation, control cabinet and control system building, building services and service work on distribution boards. The wide range from 0.25 to 16.0 mm² covers control cables and supply lines with the same tool.

Standards and conformity
