With the Knipex 97 81 180, you crimp wire ferrules effortlessly in deep switch boxes and tight spaces where side insertion is not possible. Thanks to the practical front loading design, you insert conductors and ferrules directly from the front. Using a single dedicated crimping position, you reliably handle cross sections from 0.5 mm² to 6 mm² (AWG 20-10), preventing fine-stranded copper wires from fraying and ensuring secure connections in screw terminals. Forged from oil-hardened special tool steel, this compact 180 mm tool weighing 227 g delivers durable precision and total control during all your electrical installation tasks.
