Crimper model numbers

[ramdough]

So, did some SS searches and found a thread, but I wanted to drill down a little further.

What crimpers do you need for your FMTV toolbox?

I found in other threads:
Buchanan c-24
Dmc af8
Mention of a Douglas crimper.

Can someone please say which crimper you would want for each applications on an FMTV?

I already plan to crimp Packard connectors. Trying to decide what I need. Also, price is important. Some models are stupid expensive. Please provide recommendations for price minded people.

Thanks in advance!

For the female packards I use a snapon pwcss7cf. Which does regular small terminals and is also a wire stripper. Very handy tool. For the male packards I use a daniels af8.

Do you need a turret head on the Daniels af8? Which one? Thanks!

No just the basic crimper

I get my crimpers from China on ali, about $18 each and they are VERY well built.

Commercial electric stripper and crimper. It simply flips for crimper then flip to strip and cut. Very handy. Had them for about 2yrs now

go to that auction site and search for 'crimper SN-48B' This is the basic crimper that will do uninsulated terminals. If you go to ali express there are hundreds more. I have 5 or 6 of these as well as automated machines that strip and crimp from reels of terminals, a real time saver.

Crimping is much more of a Science than most realize. There is a good video on Youtube going in to the physics and flowing the copper etc. Changed the way I crimp my connections. Got the RIGHT tools. Lots of pseudo tools that sorta work out there.

Here's one: It is a commercial, but the info. seems solid. I think it is TE Tyco.
