Hozan Crimping Tool (For Open Barrel Type Contact) Crimping Pliers Die Part with Steps, Thin Finish AWG #28 - #14 P-706

If what you're after is a quality pair of open barrel crimpers, look no further. The precision of these crimpers is on par with just about any other tool you could buy. Nothing fancy or trick about them, just made to get down to business and do a quality job of the crimping you're doing. They're not cheap but well worth what you'll be paying for such a high quality tool.

Great tool but a little mis-aligned so the crimp isn't always clean.

You may look at the price and scoff but you get what you pay for with this type of crimper. And what you get with the Hozan P-706 is a simple, robust and versatile crimper that does it's specific purpose without fail or frustration everytime and will continue to do so; given you use and maintain them properly. Highly recommend, buy it on sale if you can.

I’ve always wanted a tool to do professional wire crimping on my projects and this tool is perfect for it. When I first got it I was a bit confused as to how it was different from my other tools so I did a test on one of my terminals with a wire and was blown away. It folded the terminals over and down exactly like the terminal I removed from my car. I wish I’d bought this years ago, instead of just crushing the terminals onto the wire this tool neatly grabs the wire and won’t let go. If you do a lot of wiring projects and are tired of having to solder every cut wire, buy this tool it’s worth every penny.

It's ok, but not great. Works well for tiny metric/ jap electrical connections, but nothing bigger. If you're looking for something similar to the Super Crimper from K&L, this is not it. Although it works good for the really tine connections like for injectors, not so much for regular ones on motorcycles.

Makes perfect crimps after a little practice.

I liked this tool, but had seen images of it with the numbers and markings etched, not printed. Some of the markings are already beginning to rub off. I think the older versions of this tool have the numbers and markings etched into the metal.

Does a great job making crimps. I ordered some nickel plated high heat steel terminals, this crimper handled them with ease. Wish I learned about these long ago, the crimp is way stronger than just crunching a terminal. Feels good in the hand, not like it will fall apart.

These things really are a Swiss army knife of crimping. They crimp so many connectors, so well!! If you're into electronics, you really do need a pair of these in your toolbox.

This crimper is the best one I ever purchased, it works really really well on small open barrel terminals. I wish I found this long time ago since I wasted a lot of money on other crimpers.

Good

Very good tool for basic crimping of uninsulated connectors. Works well (better than pliers) and not too expensive (some crimp tools are). Japanese made, so good quality.

Werkt prima.
