TITAN 11477 Ratcheting Wire Terminal Crimper Tool for Insulated Terminals, Fixed Jaw Crimper

I bought these crimpers on November 24th, 2016 and received them on November 26th. They came in a blister pack and placed in a small box wihtout packing material, none was needed, it's a tool. I have used it for crimping insulated electrical blade connectors and the barrel connectors from the small reds to the big yellows and they have made a solid crimp each and every time. It makes a double type of crimp that is much more solid than the single crimp from the scissor type crimpers. I have used them in automotive wiring and in household electrical wiring projects and love the one handed operation and the solid feel of the resulting connection. The price was reasonable compared to other crimpers and the feel of the tool is solid making me believe it will last for years. These is no play in the working of the mechanism and it seems to have a high build quality. I am considering another purchase of this tool for my shop because I have to go to the work van to retrieve this one every time I need it at home. I am happy with this tool and will not go back to the old way of crimping with a cheap single crimp scissor type crimper. Pros: Solidly constructed A comfortable grip Solid crimps Reasonable price point Cons: None ***UPDATE*** I purchased a second pair of this tool for use at home in my shop and it works just as well as the first pair. Will never again try crimping wire connectors without them.

I have a vintage car and I needed a crimper that would do 7mm wires. The listing does not show wire size like I'm used to for ignition cables, 7mm, 8mm and 8.5mm, it shows 17 AWG. I called customer service and they said it does work with 7mm. I quickly made a set of cables for my '36 Ford and it worked perfectly. Good solid crimps. I used the number 2 position on the die. The surprize is that I have a crimper tool from Wirefy that came in a case with 4 sets of dies for various terminals. They look similar to the H1 Titan die and I found they are interchangeable, so if you have a Wirefy crimper you can just buy the H1 die and you will be able to do ignition cables.

I read many of the 1 and 2 star reviews AFTER I used this crimper on various electrical connectors. From my experience, the type and quality of connector you use makes a BIG difference. I have some low dollar steel import crimp on ends and they didn't crimp very well. Some of the yellow connectors would not crimp completely. I had to put the Titan crimper in a bench vise to get it to compress fully because I didn't have enough hand strength to compress the crimpers all the way. I'm a 6'1" / 220 pound weight lifter who can shrug 495 pounds on a bar - it's not a hand strength issue. Then I used the Titan crimper with Wirefy copper connectors available on Amazon. The Wirefy connectors are made of 100% copper with a 3:1 polyeolefin shrink tube integrated on the connector. The key here is the copper connector - it's softer than steel, compresses completely and far more easily than the cheap steel connectors. The Wirefy connectors are not cheap but they work great with the Titan crimpers. I could not get the cheap steel connectors to crimp with my old crimping tool - so it's not the tool, its the actual connector you are using. Pro: -Heavy duty, well made tool -Crimps copper connectors very solidly - I've used it on 12 - 18 gauge copper wire with no issues -The Red/Blue/Yellow designation on the crimper jaws is handy Con: -No release - if you put a heavy duty yellow steel connector in the Titan crimper, you'd better have a hand like Hellboy or a bench vise near by. -Not the best design for leverage - the handles are too close together and there is not enough mechanical advantage. I can understand why some folks mught be disappointed in this tool. But with large steel connectors or even smaller steel connectors you need a LOT of force to compress them - almost pneumatic or hydraulic. This is a $25 hand tool - understand the limitations and buy the proper connectors and you will give this tool a 4-5 star rating. If you don't, it explains the 1-2 star ratings.

These types of crimpers are highly recommended over the standard ones you get in a department store. These are of good quality with a comfortable grip. The ratcheting mechanism works well, and they make a solid crimp. These store well in toolbox.

Great crimper , good value , comfortable grip I've used these for 3 years now no issues

pleased with the action on the Crimper; it doesn't allow for over-crimping like the cheap normal wire crimpers I've been shamefully using most of my life. For this custom cloth-covered wiring job I knew I had, I made sure to purchase not only this crimper tool, but also the the Pertronix spark plug wire jacket/trim removal tool. I was worried about this job as I know just in general it's easy to mess up a wiring cut/trim/crimp on plug wires and I wanted this task to go very well since it's a feature of my Sportster build. It went surprisingly smooth and quick using both tools. Very happy.

Appears well made, haven’t started project yet so don’t know how well they perform

Worked perfect for clamping ends on my plug wires, super clean and tight. Boots slid over without a snag

O produto é de boa qualidade excepcional, excelente eu garanto e recomendo

I recently purchased the Titan 11477 Ratcheting Wire Terminal Crimper and I must say, I am impressed with the product. The non-slip grip rubber handle makes it easy to hold and use, and the steel jaws are durable and can handle crimping a variety of wire sizes. The color-coded dots on the jaws make it easy to select the correct wire size for crimping, and the adjustable crimping compression allows for precise crimping. The ratcheting mechanism design with color-coded wire sizes, 10-22AWG, is a great feature that makes it easy to select the correct wire size. The double crimping die creates a secure crimp that resists pull-out, and the quick release lever frees the crimper jaws in any position and when double crimp is complete. It acts as a built-in safety measure that can open the handles whenever the tool is jammed or stuck. The bi-material handles feature an ergonomic design that offers a comfortable, secure grip. Overall, I found the Titan 11477 Ratcheting Wire Terminal Crimper to be a high-quality tool that is easy to use and produces reliable crimps. The adjustable crimping compression is also a great feature that allows for precise crimping. I did not find any major issues with the product. I would highly recommend the Titan 11477 Ratcheting Wire Terminal Crimper to anyone in need of a reliable wire terminal crimper.

Just as discribed

Excellent product though more instructions on how to use it on the packaging would be nice.
