Preciva Ferrule Crimping Tool Kit with 1900PCS Wire Connectors, Hexagonal AWG23-10 Sawtooth Self-Adjustable Ratchet Wire Terminals Crimper Kit

This thing is a fraction the price of the name brand equivalents. It self adjusts to any size ferrule and crimps wonderfully every time; not to mention the nice selection of ferrules it comes with.

I'm usually a bit skeptical of cheap crimpers, especially after some previous Amazon buys, but these work great! I've never really used ferrules before but had zero issues with this kit. Definitely a lot easier to deal with than loose stranded wire. The tool itself is surprisingly well made, especially at the price point. The grip is comfortable and it crimps smoothly. The carrying case is pretty low quality though. I threw that out immediately.

I did not realize that these ferrules were so small. I needed them for #10 and#8 wire nothing in the kit was large enough.It was a very nice kit, I just couldn’t use it.

Larger wires crimp great and the tool does it's job. It gets jammed on smaller wires and this seems to be a comment mentioned in several other reviews. Kind of a pain, but it still works.

I'm in the process of doing some home remodeling, and i'm upgrading to smart wifi switches and new lights and new wiring. In the process of doing this work, I noticed that the smart switches and led lights, come with stranded wire, and I wanted to use the new push in wire nuts https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000F5THV8 The issue is that stranded wire can't be pushed into those like you can with solid wire "Romex". So I did some research and a crimp on ferrule seemed to be what I needed. I looked thru the offerings on Amazon, and decided on this kit. I can say, without a doubt, I am very pleased with this setup. Everything about this feels premium.The box is full color, not a brown cardboard plain box, inside is a really nice zippered stiff sided storage pouch, inside the pouch there are elastic bands to secure the tool and ferrules. the ferrules are housed in a nice plastic container, and get this, none of the ferrules were out of place. I didn't have some of the red ferrules mixed in with the blue ones, or the grey, etc.. So that was really nice that I didn't have to reorganize hundreds of scattered ferrules, they all stayed in their correct compartments within the plastic box, even thru shipping. Wow! The tool feels premium, it has heft to it and the mechanism is smooth and positive. Like something that would normally cost $100+ just for the tool alone. The ferrules also seem to be of high quality, I didn't see any burrs or bad stampings. In the process of researching which ferrule crimper kit I wanted to buy, i chose on the 6 way crimper, as I felt that it would provide a "closer to round" style of crimp, vs the more common 4 way crimp that makes a square shape. I crimped the ferrules on the ends of the stranded wires and installed them in the push in wire nuts and they worked great, exactly what I needed. I think these are a great value, the quality seems very good and the price is phenomenal for everything you get.

I'm not an electrician and I may never need to crimp another ferrule, but one can never have too many tools. I bought this tool simply because I needed to crimp one ferrule installing a soft starter on my outside HVAC compressor. It worked flawlessly right out of the box. Considering the quality of the crimper, the good selection of ferrules, and the nice case, this tool was a bargain. And I'll be ready if I ever need to crimp another one.

Good stuff

Had a number of wiring situations where i was putting the stripped ends of the stranded wires directly into rows of euro-style terminal blocks. Good connections, but in some situations, the stranded wires can come loose, or individual strands can come out and cause problems. The correct solution is to put ferrules on the wires to contain all of the strands and then everything is safe and secure.I finally got around to purchasing this set and am extremely happy with it. The tool itself is well-built and uses a unique six-sided crimping mechanism to create a very strong and versatile connection profile. This hex shape is better suited to the clamping mechanism inside the connectors and much better than the square profile produced by other tools.There is a great starter/low volume selection of ferrules supplied to get you started (or to address your low volume requirements). I don't know why I waited so long to add this to my tool collection, but I am very happy with the purchase and the quality of the tool.
