Make cables and wiring harnesses with ease using the best crimping pliers we've used. These especially light, ergonomic, precision-machined crimpers will turn you into a pro, with no more painful struggles with pliers and generic crimpers that smoosh your contacts so they won't fit properly.
This model does a wide range of the most common connectors, including but not limited to JST XH, PH, EH & NH series, Molex Micro-Fit, KK series, etc. AWG #32-#18
There's a great website at ENGINEER Co. with lots of details, including a detailed compatibility chart. There is also a video tutorial showing how to use the tool, so please check it out! Come for the instructions; stay for the super funky background music, the charming voiceover, and, of course, Takasaki-san.
Features:
  • Constructed for 2.5mm pitch connector contacts of different connector manufacturers, works with JST XH, PH, EH & NH series, Molex Micro-Fit, KK series, etc.  AWG #32-#18
  • Perfectly crimps triangular insulation barrel (lugs) of DuPont (Servo) connector, Molex C-Grid III, etc. without damaging the insulations.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

AWG
American Wire Gauge is a numbering system for wire thickness, where a lower number means a thicker wire. The AWG rating matters because thicker wire can usually carry more current with less voltage drop and heating.
pH
A measure of how acidic or alkaline a liquid is, on a scale where 7 is neutral. For a water monitoring kit, pH tells you about water chemistry and whether the included probe matches the range and accuracy your project needs.
servo
A servo is a motor with built-in position control, usually told to move to a specific angle by a control signal. It matters when you need repeatable movement, such as steering, arms, flaps, or linkages, rather than continuous spinning.
