Crimping tools

Are you installing switching equipment? Then your work cannot do without a crimping tool. It is a special device with attachments for different wire diameters, with which you can make different cable assemblies. They can be either a twisted pair cable with an RJ45 connector or a network cable with two wires.

How to choose a crimping tool for the job?
The cable crimping tool is a multifunctional device that can be used to make power cords and sets of network connectors of various types. It looks like a hand-held device with two handles and rubber pads on them, on the working part of which there are universal jaws with different numbers of diameters.

Crimping tools are manufactured for different purposes. In our catalog you can order devices for:

Manufacturing of power cable lugs and power cables for low-power devices. The device has attachments for different diameters of cable cores from 1 sq. mm up to several tens for different tips.
We also have tools for crimping cables exclusively for network devices. Such guns have a specially shaped socket where you need to install an RJ-45 connector.
Crimping tools for high power cable lugs. Such devices process large-diameter wires that are used in power equipment.
Crimping tools for cable lugs (crimpers) are also equipped with a device for removing insulation. The seemingly massive, but very light device greatly facilitates the work of installers, reducing the time spent on auxiliary work to remove the same insulation.

We have several types of crimping tools for twisted pair cables, depending on the manufacturer and design. For example, professional models are designed for regular use, so they will weigh more. Mechanical connections are made to a higher quality and without noticeable backlash. For one-time or infrequent tasks, it is better to purchase a cheaper RJ-45 crimping tool, but it is important to know that its service life is very limited by materials and price.

If you don’t know which multifunctional crimping tool is best to purchase, then our manager will help you in this matter. He will talk about the features of each of the presented models. If you want to purchase a high-quality device, it will provide information about some elements of the device.

How to use the crimping tool?
To crimp a network cable when designing a server or laying power lines for powerful equipment, you must first buy the right crimping tool. Here you will find many models of crimping tools in Ukraine for different types of installation tasks.

As you can see from its appearance, the device is versatile. Still, many even professional models easily fit in the palm of your hand and are equipped with comfortable handles for a secure grip. You must work with the item as follows:

Take the mechanism correctly. You should work with it with both hands.
If you are crimping a network cable with a socket, then with the crimping tool you need to cut off the desired piece with an integrated knife and remove the outer sheath from the cable. The actions are performed by simple pressing and relaxing the palm.
After exposing the conductors, they must be distributed by color. Almost every RJ-45 crimping tool has a diagram for assembling straight and crossover twisted pair cables, so you don’t have to look for it on the Internet and waste your time on this procedure.
Then, the connector is placed in a special socket and the set of wires is pierced from the contacts with a pusher on the top of the working mechanism. Everyone is their own guide. Press until you hear a click.
If you need to put a lug on a power cable, the RJ-45 crimping tool also has corresponding sockets for conductors of different diameters. With its help, in addition to removing insulation, you can also remove the contact sleeve.

How to care for your cable crimping tool?
Considering that crimping tools are universal mechanisms in which various lever, pressing and cutting devices are integrated, they require regular maintenance and care. It consists of cleaning from dust and other contaminants that accumulate over time of use. It is also necessary to lubricate the device so that all its elements move freely and do not get stuck. For these purposes, it is better to use silicone lubricants.
