Crimping non insulated terminals

[phillpot]

Need some decent crimp pliers that will do a "proper job" on this style of terminal.....



lots of cheap stuff out there and then there are several in the £30-£35 bracket and then there are these.


Should I splash the cash or are any of the lower price items up to the job?

Advice and or opinions from those of you who work daily with such things would be appreciated

Bergen are decent tools if you are using on a reasonably regular basis, these ones are adjustable too to allow for tool face wear etc.

They look like good crimping pliers and to be honest thats not a bad price.

Appreciate your comments guys but can anyone put their hand up and say " I bought some,yes they are good" ?

I bought one of these http://www.carbuildersolutions.com/uk/proper-f-cri...
Works just fine. No need for ratchets if you can see and feel the crimp being made.

Buy the Bergen, I have the same tool (different brand but obviously same factory) and it produces good crimps. You can get different/replacement jaws under the Laser brand too.
