Worth every penny.
These are the best crimping pliers I have used. They are exteremly precise as the jaws are very narrow. This enables you to crimp very accurately. The lack of a rachet allows you to apply just enough pressure to make a perfect crimp. I have now used them for dozens of crimps and find them very comfortable to use. Make sure they are the correct size for the crimps you are going to use as there are different pliers in the range for other sizes. Highly recommended.

Much better than getting by with pliers
It's definitely worth using a proper crimp tool than just making do with pliers. These a good quality and it's easy to get a good crimp on a variety of connector sizes.

Great
I am very glad that I got this. It is built well... sturdy and reliable. I will be getting lots done with it. Already crimped a few connectors and they were done nicely. I'm not a professional but follow the video and it will work like breeze.

Engineer PA-21 Crimpers
I bought these pliers after reading many reviews. The pliers are well made but I couldn't get them to work for me. I ended up buying a pair of pliers in which the jaws were wire iroded, This gave the perfect form for the connector to be formed first time every time. Can't blame the tool they just didn't work for me and I wanted to crimp in one action.

The right tool makes all the difference
When I received the tool I was surprised how small it was but now for the first time I am able to easily crimp molex connectors without needing to play around. Excellent quality tool, I’m planning on buying a pair for other sized connectors now. Definitely better than ratchet type.

Why didn’t I get this years ago!
After years of using cheap Chinese crimping tools which don’t make a good crimp and then break, I don’t know why I didn’t buy this before! Was a little worried about not having a ratchet but can easily put enough force in and the crimp comes out perfect.

Well made - good value
I use these in my home electronics lab for the Molex KK Series of connectors. I simply could not have justified the cost of a crimp tool from the major electronics distributors in the UK. These are very well made and affordable. I am looking forward to many years of service from them.

Amazing
Tried a lot of tools for crimping, but the Japanese have mastered the art. A+

Exactly what I was looking for
This is exactly the tool I have been after. I haven't been able to find a tool to crimp a specific type of terminal I use regularly but this has worked a treat. Basic easy to use tool allowing for perfect crimps.

やっぱり専用工具
今まで、端子の圧着作業は少し行う程度だったのでこういった専用工具は使用せずに汎用の端子圧着機などで代用していましたが、大量に作業をおこなうにあたり専用工具のほうが良いだろうと購入しました。 結果としては、もっと早くに購入するべきでした。 圧着した箇所の仕上がりが段違いでかつすごくきれいに仕上がります。 別に表に出るものでも、ジロジロ見られるような箇所でも有りませんが、きれいに圧着されていると気持ちは良いです。 また、作業スピードが格段に早くなり大量の作業も苦になりませんでした。 最初は少しコツが要りますが、慣れの範疇です。 やはり、専用工具って必要だと感じた器具でした。

Engineer PA-21 Made in Japan, ist meist ein Qualitätsmerkmal......
...und hier bekam ich, was ich vom Werkzeug erwartet habe. Verarbeitung ist sehr gut, die Aussparungen sind einwandfrei gearbeitet und was noch wichtiger ist, sie macht das wozu sie bestimmt ist. Kontakte crimpen und das mit Bravour. Hatte von Engineer nichts anderes erwartet und wurde schon mit der PA-09 absolut positiv überrascht. Der Gelegenheits/Hobbyanwender ist mit dieser Crimpzange und wie in meinem Fall bestimmt für Molex Pico Blade und Mini Kontakte bestens beraten und ich habe viel Lehrgeld in angeblich ach so tolle Crimpzangen zahlen müssen. Mit knappen 43€ immer noch ein Schnäppchen wie ich finde, denn professionelles Crimpwerkzeug kostet meist mehrere hundert Euro. Hier ist "Genusscrimpen" angesagt, erst die Litzenklemmung, dann ganz genüßlich die Kabelklemmung und es macht Spaß, weil das Werkzeug funktioniert. Absolute Kaufempfehlung !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Works for 15AWG cable on Molex 16AWG minifit pins
As the title says, these crimpers are more than adequate pinning out 15AWG cable. I couldn't have been happier with the performance of the PA-21 crimpers. I have a pair of ATX crimpers I purchased years ago that did 1 of five crimps okay. But they simply don't work well enough for my needs, so I picked these up with some hesitance as they are meant for 18AWG cabling. I'm using MDPC 15AWG hookup wire. Thankfully these crimpers work to 2.5mm overall thickness so they do work with the MDPC 15AWG as the overall thickness of it is 2.2mm. It's a two step crimping process, but it's much sturdier than your standard ATX crimping process. I crimp the wire crimp first and the insulation crimp last to secure it to the cable. 27 pins for my EVGA 24pin cable and only messed a couple up on 2 pins that I had to redo. Couldn't be happier with the performance of these crimpers over my old pair.

Pince au top
Super pince, rien à redire à par le prix. Sur la photo c’est du 20 AWG avec un JST-XH j’ai utilisé le 1,6 pour le devant et le 1,9 pour l’arrière. Le devant de la pince sert à mettre la pin bien droit. Très facile à utilisé et bien costaud. Je la recommande.
