## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great for crimping on connectors
*by D***N on February 28, 2025*

I had a set of Klein crimpers for making cable TV ends, and found that they make replacement jaws for it that will also crimp on ends to my coaxial cables I utilize for Amateur Radio. I've used these numerous times and it crimps perfectly and makes a solid secure connection. Saves me from having to get out the soldering iron for the tedious time consuming work of installing a solder on connector.They fit perfectly in the crimpers, and seem like solid well made jaws.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Also works with Harbor Freight Doyle Heavy Duty Ratcheting Crimper
*by C***Y on January 4, 2025*

I recently purchased a Doyle heavy duty ratcheting crimper from Harbor Freight, but it uses Phillips head screws instead of thumb screws. I purchased this in hopes it would be the same. It is and works well. No more reaching for a screwdriver when I need to change the crimping dies out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great, fits my cheap harbor freight ratcheting crimper
*by C***7 on June 5, 2020*

First off, I've never used a really expensive crimper, so I might not know what I'm missing out on. Having said that, these seem to work really well once you understand the technique. The die is shaped such that it will crimp both the wire & insulation at the same time. The insulation crimp isn't all that strong, but if you put just that portion of the crimp into the next smaller part of the die and re-crimp, it will give you a very strong crimp. Couple it with solder and/or heat shrink and you'll be in business.I bought another set of crimpers with multiple dies off Amazon for around $30, but I also "sprung" for the Klein jaws. Comparing them side by side, these appear to be a "first casting" as opposed to something cheaper which was probably cast off a 2nd or 3rd generation mold, losing all the fine details along the way.But what made this great was that this die fit my super cheap Harbor Freight ratcheting crimper.
