Description

The KNIPEX 180mm Crimping Pliers for Ferrules (97 78 180) are precision ratchet crimp pliers for applying un-insulated and insulated bootlace ferrules across the standard building electrical conductor range. The 180mm format provides a comfortable working length with adequate mechanical advantage for the full crimp force required across the range of covered cross-sections.
The multi-profile die accommodates ferrule cross-sections in the most commonly required sizes, and the ratchet mechanism provides full-compression assurance on each crimp. The ergonomic handles reduce hand fatigue during the intensive termination phases of panel building and installation projects.
KNIPEX’s precision manufacturing ensures the die geometry produces the correct compression profile for reliable electrical contact in all standard ferrule types. A professional-quality crimp tool for electricians and panel builders who terminate large numbers of conductors with bootlace ferrules.
