Description

The Crimper for Insulated Terminals 0.5–6mm² (36850560) is a professional ratchet crimping tool for applying insulated bootlace-style crimp connectors (ferrules, ring terminals, fork terminals, and pin terminals) to conductors ranging from 0.5mm² to 6mm². The colour-coded, non-interchangeable die profile ensures that only the correct die profile contacts the terminal body, preventing incorrect crimps that could cause connection failure.
The ratchet mechanism prevents the tool from releasing until the crimp is complete — a critical feature that eliminates the under-crimped connections that can occur when a manual crimp tool is released prematurely. This produces consistently reliable mechanical and electrical connections across large volumes of terminations.
The 0.5–6mm² range covers the vast majority of conductor sizes used in domestic and commercial electrical installation, making this a core crimping tool for electricians who terminate insulated connectors. The colour coding matches the standard red (0.5–1.5mm²), blue (1.5–2.5mm²), and yellow (4–6mm²) terminal convention.
