CRIMPING TOOLS
C.K Crimping Tools & Ratchet Crimpers
Shop C.K crimping tools at Order Electrical, with professional cable and terminal crimpers from Carl Kammerling (C.K Tools) for electricians, installers, engineers and maintenance professionals.
Crimping tools are designed to form a secure mechanical connection between a conductor and a compatible terminal, connector, ferrule or cable lug. Using the correct crimper helps produce consistent terminations without relying on soldered connections.
The C.K range can include ratchet crimping tools, terminal crimpers, ferrule crimpers and specialist cable crimping tools, with different jaw profiles and crimping ranges designed for specific connector types.
For electrical installation work, crimpers may be used with insulated and non-insulated terminals, bootlace ferrules, cable lugs and other compatible electrical connectors. The tool, terminal and conductor size must always be correctly matched.
Ratchet crimpers use a controlled mechanism that helps complete the crimping cycle consistently before releasing, making them particularly useful for repetitive professional termination work.
Choosing the Right Crimping Tool
When choosing an electrical crimping tool, first identify the type of terminal or connector being used. A crimper designed for insulated terminals may use a different die profile from one intended for non-insulated terminals, bootlace ferrules or cable lugs.
Next, check the conductor size or crimping range supported by the tool. Using an incorrect die or crimp size can result in a poor termination, even when the terminal appears to have been securely compressed.
For regular installation work, also consider whether a ratchet crimper would be beneficial and whether interchangeable dies are required for different connector types.
