Self-adjusting crimping pliers for wire ferrules with lateral access, hexagonal crimp up to 16 mm², 180 mm - Knipex 97 53 14 SB

Anyone fitting ferrules in changing cross-sections loses time swapping dies and risks a crimp that does not match the conductor. These pliers set themselves to the required ferrule size automatically and work up to 16 mm² without any die change at all. The item is the self-service version of the 97 53 14 tool and is supplied in a retail pack.

Benefits

• Adjusts automatically to the required ferrule size for precise and quick crimping without changing dies.
• Ferrules are inserted from the side, so over-long ferrules can pass right through the tool.
• Hexagonal crimp, also suitable for all twin ferrules up to 2 x 10 mm² or 2 x AWG 8.
• Unlockable ratchet for repeatable crimping quality, the crimping pressure is calibrated at the factory.
• High crimping force from an efficient lever action, with a narrow handle width and low weight.
• Special quality chrome vanadium electric steel, oil-hardened.
