SENTAI Crimping Tool Kit with Stripper & Cutter - For Different Kinds of Terminals with 5 Interchangeable Die Sets 0.5-35mm ² - Packed with Oxford Bag

Edit (24 June 2020): Note that the die set in this kit are 13mm in height. This tool will NOT accept the smaller 10mm dies sets needed for electronics (i.e. the SN-2549 needed for Dupont/JST connectors).This is the second pair of crimpers I ordered from Amazon this week. I sent the first set back because they could not make an adequate crimp for 12 Ga uninsulated barrel connectors (Morris Products 11758). The A10 dies provided in this set did a very good job though I would prefer some kind of HEX crimp.All the dies are marked in strange metric mm2 (millimeter squared) units. I constructed a chart for the five die sets with the units translated to the nearest AWG size. The dies sets are NOT marked to indicate their part number. Notably missing is a die set for smaller single lead ferrules (i.e. less than 8 gauge). I did use the A26TW die set to crimp a 12 Ga twin lead ferrule (Morris Products 12789) and it did an adequate "C" type crimp.The included wire stripers are very good quality, not mention noticeably sharper than my decade old pair. The phillips screwdriver is so-so. I would have prefered to see hex or torx screws and appropriate driver.For anyone that does no know "Sentai" is a subsidiary brand of "Iwiss" and this kit is $7.00 less expensive than the same kit sold under the 'Iwiss' brand.

I purchased the sentai crimping tool kit for installing car radios and speakers. This product had arrived a few weeks late for some projects, but this was because of the delivery service. I had ordered the iwiss crimping tool kit to finish the install. As for the sentai crimping kit, it came in a nice zip up case with pockets and Velcro for keeping everything organized and not scattered around. The crimping pliers came with most commonly used tips to crimp connectors and terminal ends and a screw driver to swap out tips. The tips I used were for crimping the terminal ends that attach onto speakers. The crimp works good and held nicely on 16g wire, 18g-20g needed a little more grip to compress the terminal end tighter to the wire (I used regular pliers to make sure they held). I liked that this kit has all the tools to get the job done in one kit which saves having to buy multiple pliers (including the wire stripper) for one job. The price and value of this kit was great for what I needed to get the job done.

Well packaged, nicely boxed upon arrival. Adjusting crimp tension was a little hard, but I highly doubt they will ever lose tension now. The strippers are very nice as well and work very well. With the variety of jaws included, the screwdriver to change the jaws and the stripper, this is an excellent add on to any tool box! Well worth the money

I needed a crimper to terminate Anderson Powerpole connectors. This set came with the A03BC die. The only noticeable difference between this die and the more expensive designated powerpole crimping dies was that this isn't labeled "15/30/45". The three sizes on the A03BC die seem to match perfectly. The crimp was tight and square. I had no trouble at all getting a good fit.

Great for the price. Compared to some higher quality tools, the dies were noticeably rougher/coarser. For everything I've done, they work just as well. Movement of the crimp force adjuster is pretty difficult, but once you dial it in, it works well.If you've got the budget for a more premium tool, by all means buy it, but this one will get the job done on the cheap.

I used this to crimp insulated fork terminals on 14 and 10 AWG wire with no issues. I have used the pliers that came as part of a kit in the past, which crushes the insulator. This made a nice neat looking terminal when complete.

This is a nice kit. It includes everything you would need to work with crimp terminals. It uses the same dies as most of the commonly available tools so I was able to purchase a separate set of dies (different brand) to work with flag terminals.The overall build quality is good, and comparable to the commercial ones I use at work. The cable strippers and included screwdriver are adequate as well. it all packs nicely in the included case.It is a great value for these tools.

They crimp well and the strippers are sharp.The metal quality is not that of a high end brand but neither is the price. Definitely best value for the money.Update. After several uses the handles slip off the main body every crimp but they still work fine just annoying.
