It’s time to finally invest in decent electrical crimping tool/s. does anyone have any recommendations?

 

 

 

For my current project I will need to crimp both Anderson Powerpole 15A connectors on 10AWG wire and Anderson 50A connectors on 6AWG wire. Not sure one tool will do both, will I need seperate tools?

Something like these would be my suggestion. Any of the electrical suppliers should have these or similar.

If you want a good reliable connection buy the tool made to crimp these particular connectors.

 

 

 

An off the shelf crimp tool in NZ will be standard metric sizes that more than likely over or under crimp, both of which is not good.
