AMP terminal crimper

[Tech225]

What kind of crimper is your favorite for the AMP terminals used in most strobe assemblies? I have one made by AMP but is a little cumbersome to use and I'd like to try something else. Thanks.

Greenlee also makes a nice ratcheting unit, I will find out more from work on tem, as we use them regularly.

If you could, that would be great. I like the Greenlee stuff. Maybe a model number? Thanks.

Mac Tools also have a nice easy to use and sized pair of crimpers for the amp style termnials.
I have them in my duty bag at the office and will try to get the model number off of them next shift

I like my little needle nose pliers.. they only cost a few bucks.

Sadly they do no where near the same as far as a bulletproof crimp.

The ratchet style are extreamly fast and give great crimps each time.

These are for someone that crimps these style connectors often... not once or twice a year

I use the Packard crimpers for crimping all the wing style connectors onto wire no matter who the manufacturer. I also have a set of the NAPA "OEM style" but they give nowhere near the squeeze power of the Packard ones.
