This 16-ton crimper has plenty of power to crimp wires and cable fairly well. The design is strong and heavy duty; however, the dies leave a lot to be desired. They do not produce a hexagon as they are supposed to because the sides are NOT equal. Thus, you end up with a slanted or flattened hexagonal shape. All the dies supplied with tool exhibit the same cut. If the hexagonal crimp is important to you, look for a different set; otherwise, this tool set will be a good addition to your collection.

This is a decent product, it does work, has seemly good power, but its overall construction is not for the long run, The dies are numbered for International wire size's not US Standard's. they will not hold up to everyday usages. It does have a decent case. Works good with medium range wire connectors , such as automotive type connectors, but i would hesitate using this product on heavy duty US Standard Electrical entrance wiring systems, So if you looking for a Automotive Battery Cable wire connector , then this product will work good . Care is needed in selecting dies and the amount of pressure used, it will cut or damage wire and connector

Overkill for my application. It worked very well and simple enough to use. This is a bulky tool and takes sometimes 3 hands to manage it. Other than it being a heavy tool. It appears to be made well and is solid. I've only used it a few times and it's getting easier to use each time. Overall a good tool and well made with multiple dies for different size crimps.

I admit, I haven't used the crimper yet, but I see no reason it wouldn't work as intended. It's cleverly designed, and looks like a great value in terms of quality and what you get in the kit. I still can't believe you get a hydraulic crimping tool with a wide array of dies for this low price, but it's true.

I use these to crimp 2/0 battery cable ends after I solder the ends to get a good connection. Works great for me. Comes with many different size dies so a great value also.
