VSR-6D

Repaired a common ground in an automotive wiring harness using these crimpers. They feel good to use and work well.

Easy to use and works extremely well, bought one before this to clamp some 8 awg terminals, have to use a hammer to clamp with that some kind of Ratchet system, and still the wire will fall out of terminal without even force, return that one and bought this, secure connection every time, and don't need to use a hammer, use my body weight press against the floor able to do the job, the ratchet action works very good, I am very happy with this purchase. Only one thing wish it is using AWG instead of mm of indication, too old to remember all the mm for each guage.

I occasionally use non-insulated butt connectors but have been dissatisfied using an all-in-one wire stripper/cutter/crimping tool. This ratcheting crimper with its mechanical advantage gives me good secure crimps with much less effort. The tool quality seems very good and the price is quite reasonable.

I bought these to make up crimped connection on 6 AWG multi-strand wire. Despite having a little wiggle, none of the connections will pull lose once you crimp them. One thing I did not think of when ordering these is that the jaws are only 3mm wide so your crimped connection is small relative to the size of the connector. I made several crimps per connector to ensure a good connection and covered them all with heat shrink. Overall I wish these made a little better crimp but I can't argue with the price or the results.

perfect size, a solid step up from my handheld crimpers. i needed for 2 and 4 awg, and worked perfectly. 2 awg is doable but definitely max capacity for this tool. I would recommend for professional use as long as you dont crimp 2 awg all day

This thing crimps like nobody's business! I've been using it to rewire all my lighting in my Jeep and it gives a beautiful crimp. It releases easily and if you get a little ahead of yourself, there's a lever that you can release it without having to worry about getting your finger pinched or destroying any of the wires or connectors that your working on. Note, the numbers are in metric but you can pretty much eyeball the size that you would need or for what ever gauge you are working on.

This piece of garbage locked up on me after 10 uses. It was impossible to fix

Size is larger than I thought. Release is not convenient.
