Self-adjusting crimping pliers for wire ferrules with lateral access, hexagonal crimp, 180 mm - Knipex 97 55 14 SB

Anyone wiring terminal rows changes conductor cross-section constantly, and every die change costs time. These pliers set themselves to the required ferrule size automatically and crimp with a hexagonal profile without any die change at all. The item is the self-service version of the 97 55 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 mechanism for repeatable crimping quality, crimping pressure 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, pliers and head chrome-plated.

Areas of use

Electrical installation, control cabinet and control system building, machine wiring and service work. The narrow handle width and the low weight pay off wherever crimping goes on by hand for longer periods.
