Cable Crimper S/CONN 18-01010 Black Blue 1 pc

The ShiverPeaks Cable Crimper S/CONN 18-01010 Black Blue is a hand tool engineered for accurate and reliable crimping of a range of connector types on electrical and signal cables. The tool combines a compact, ergonomic shape with a durable black and blue finish to provide consistent mechanical action during each crimp. It is intended for use by technicians, electricians and knowledgeable DIYers who require a stable connection between cable conductors and crimp-style terminals or connectors.

Advantages

This cable crimper provides precise jaw alignment and firm closing force to create secure crimps with minimal deformation of connectors. The construction uses robust materials for repeated use in workshop and field environments, while the handle shape and grip material reduce hand fatigue during extended tasks. Its size and weight balance make it convenient to handle in confined spaces and for routine maintenance work.

Suitable for

• Crimping insulated and non-insulated terminals on power and signal cables
• Assembly of connectorized wiring harnesses for appliances and vehicles
• Electrical repair, maintenance and retrofit work in workshops or on-site
• DIY electrical projects where consistent, mechanically sound crimps are required

Key specifications

• Tool type: manual hand crimper for cable connectors
• Design: compact ergonomic body with molded handles
• Finish: black and blue coated surfaces for durability and wear resistance
• Operating mode: single-handed manual crimping action
• Application range: suitable for various small to medium gauge cables and crimp terminals
• Typical use environment: workshop, field service, household repairs

How to use

Select the appropriate connector and strip the cable to the recommended conductor length. Place the conductor into the terminal barrel, then position the terminal into the crimper jaws aligned with the crimping profile. Squeeze the handles steadily until the jaws complete the crimping action and release. Inspect the crimp visually and by a light tensile test to confirm a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Clean and store the crimper in a dry place after use.

Recommendations

Use connectors and cable sizes that match the crimper's intended application range. Perform a sample crimp and pull test when changing cable types or connector brands to verify crimp quality. Periodically check the jaw faces for wear and keep the hinge lubricated to maintain consistent performance.
