iCrimp AP-11 Ratchet Crimping Tool for 15/30/45 Amp Power Connectors, Secure and Consistent Crimps with Color-Coded Dies, Ideal for Automotive, Solar and Battery Applications

Good quality tool, works well, no slop

For quite a while I just soldered my powerpole connectors, and to be fair I have never had one fail on me yet. These crimpers make the job much easier though, once you learn the limitations. If you try to crimp using too small a wire then you may well find problems but otherwise I've found the process to be very straight forward. A crimped connection ought to be more reliable than a soldered one, but as mentioned earlier so far both ways have been 100% reliable for me despite having been dragged around mountainous environments many times. This crimping tool is cheaper than other alternative one I've seen, and way cheaper than the 'proper' one. I'm very happy with my purchase.

I have been up until now, soldering Powerpole connectors, but to be fair it has been a faff, and could take up to an hour due to final shaping of the finished item so that it can slide into the plastic housing. Then comes along the IWISS tool, wow, wow, wow, absolutely perfect crimp tool, that takes seconds to crimp the Powerpole connectors, I mostly use 30 and 45amp, using 10 awg cable with the 45amp, the tool makes for a perfect crimp every time, far better than soldering that’s for sure.

I bought this crimping tool after reading the reviews of other buyers and I agree with their comments; the tool is well made and easy to use and will no doubt give many years of excellent service if used with the power pole connectors that came with it, but not with genuine Anderson connectors. My experience so far is that it works very well with the power pole connectors supplied with it which are Anderson look-a-likes, but not so well with genuine Anderson power pole crimp connectors. The Anderson power pole connectors don't fit into the crimp guide correctly where they are frequently mashed or do not crimping the connector correctly, it also needs far more effort for this tool to crimp a genuine Anderson joint when compared to the crimps that are supplied with it. Is it a good tool, yes but I've given it 4 stars because it doesn't work well with Anderson Power Pole crimps as suggested in the advertisement. It was my search for a cheaper alternative to the Anderson Power Pole crimping tool that brought me to this page and that's what I got, so the search continues.

Does what it says on the tin

Does an excellent job of crimping power poles to various side cables makes the task so much easier

Works very well for Anderson Power Pole. I do recommend this product.

This is a good quality product that cost much less than other brands, and works just as well.

Scrivo poche recensioni ma quest'oggetto lo merita: mi ha permesso di fare con rapidità delle ottime crimpature, cosa che con una precedente pinza non ero assolutamente riuscito a fare (se non dopo aver buttato via un bel po' di connettori, provato e riprovato). Con questa è filato tutto bene sin da subito. Se avete dubbi sul come procedere, guardate su youtube: è pieno di tutorial che mostrano come usarla.

Perfekt und gut verarbeitet, solide Qualität zum günstigen Preis 👍🏼
