ARES 70005 | Professional Ratcheting Wire Terminal Crimper Tool | Perfect Crimp Every Time for 10-22 Gauge Insulated and Weather-Proof Terminals SPECIFICATIONS: The ARES Professional Ratcheting Wire Terminal Crimper works with 10-22 gauge wire and has color-coded sizing for easy use. The adjustable tension and ergonomic handles reduce fatigue and stress on your hands. DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS: This crimper's ratcheting action requires only a fraction of the strength and effort it takes to use a non-ratcheting crimper as it captures and restrains the sides of the terminal and crimps the top and bottom. This design ensures crimps consistently make a cold weld between the wire and barrel of the connector, essentially eliminating damaged and distorted terminals. MANUAL INCLUDED: A PDF manual with crimping tips will be emailed to you when the crimper is delivered, so you can be sure you're getting the best possible use out of it! RELIABLE | EFFECTIVE | EFFICIENT: Users trust ARES to be Quality Tools. You are backed by our Performance Assurance Limited Lifetime Warranty.
