    • STOP SCROLLING & BUY
Style: Install and Test Kit
This tool kit is hands down the best purchase, if you need to do any work with coax cabling. Crimp Tool is very durable, simple, and it gets the job done. Make sure you buy connectors that are 21 or 22 mm long. The cable tester is awesome and can be used to trace wires. Which is very handy if you need to find your wire in a cable closet. The Coax Stripping tool is hands down the best one I have used. It cuts away the perfect amount. Klein connectors work great, but are expensive to replace. Buy these instead: RG6 BELDEN PPC EX6XLWSPLUS ... show more

    • Very handy!
Style: Install and Test Kit
After using these I feel like they are almost a must have.I retired my house for an antenna I put up and these tools just made the connected part so easy. It has been years since I put coax connectors on and I was looking forward to it but the tools just made it simple

    • Fixed my Cable TV Problems
Style: Install and Test Kit
I had problems with cable in my house ever since a moved in. Tee signal upstairs would flake out and the TV would pixelate. I had the cable company come out and they re-did some splitters but it didn't really help. I had two different cable companies over this time period and the same kinds of problems. So I bought one of these kits and a spool of cable, some bi-directional splitters and re-strung everything I could in the house. I used the newer type of cable (RG6 Quad shield) and this kit. I didn't realize how bad my old connectors and cable was until I started replacing it with this. The connectors crimp on rock solid and not sure why others were having problems, but it all worked great for me. I watched a couple of videos about the proper way to work with quad Shield (pretty easy). When I finished, everything worked great. I even strung extra cable to some spots I might need it in the future. Note -= there were two places where I could NOT replace the old style cable - but I did put the new connectors on using this kit. Tee cable still worked great. Including the ability to interact with the remote (some kind of two way communication down the cable, not just at the TV) So why four stars? - I guess because I had to come up with a way to store it all together, with the instructions, when I was done using it. It could have come with a zip lock and I would have been happy - but nothing, so I had to come up with something myself. Final confession - I never used the tester, so I cant tell you if that worked well or not, but I am guessing it would work just fine. ... show more

    • Order a female-to-female "F" adapter when ordering this tool.
Style: Install and Test Kit
I used this tool to Identify what coax cable ran from each room to the outside coax cable box. It cannot be used directly from the box without the female-to-female "F" adapter that attaches tool to the cable. Order it at the same time to use the tool when it arrives. Works great otherwise.

    • Perfect Coax install kit
Style: Install and Test Kit
Needed a coax kit to strip and crimp RG6 cable. These tools are high quality and will probably last forever. The included F-type connecters were also high quality and I would consider buying more from this brand. Tester indicated no issues on the lines I crimped and I confirmed that via data transmission over the cables. If they make one of these for RG8 or RG8X coax I'm going to have to buy it next. ... show more

    • Better than paying the cable company to install connectors.
Style: Install and Test Kit
When we purchased our house they did not put ends on the RG6Q (quad) coax cable at the box. Tried to get the cable and direct tv installer to do it when we moved in, but they would not. Later, we wanted to move our router to a different room, which put us in a dilemma... find a way to do it ourselves or pay the cable company. This tool performed perfectly. Used the diagnostic tool to identify the line, trimmed the wire, installed the end. AWESOME, well worth the money because I was able to do it myself, and now I can make my own cables if I wish, etc. INSTALLATION TIP !!! The directions that come with the kit aren't the greatest, and I never used a compression tool before. SO take note. Make sure you push the compression fitting ALL the way on (the white 'dielectric' should be against the connector) before you use the compression tool. I thought the tool was going to pull the cable into the fitting, it does not. (so I wasted the first connector) For those wondering if the kit & connectors work with RG6Q quad cable. YES, worked beautifully, trimmed correctly, connector fit, and once compressed, very secure hold. HIGHLY RECOMMEND !! ... show more

    • Perfect amateur tools to test lines and crimp on new ends
Style: Install and Test Kit
Review Image by frequent user frequent user
I used this set to figure out which of the eight lines of lines I found in my walls runs to my office. All eight lines of coax were cut and so I used the prep tool to get the lines prepped - one at a time and then the crimper tool to get new ends added. Then I tested the line using the tester tool and fortunately it only took three lines to figure out which coax ran to my office. I've never done this before and the instructions were clear enough that everything worked easily and without a hitch. Took about 30 minutes to figure it all out and find the right line. Then I added a coax to ethernet converted to each end and voila, now I can be hard-lined from my wifi router on the far end of the house to my office, using the built in coax in the walls. Saved me hundreds if not thousands of dollars to have an electrician wire cat6 through the walls. Highly recommend for amateur coax projects. ... show more
