Description

SPECIFICATIONS: Perfect for Battery & Welder cables | Designed for 8 AWG to 4/0 AWG | 5 Year Promise Directly by Us | Get Perfect Crimp Terminations Adjust Crimping Ram Head according Wire and Terminal Size. Place terminal in jaw of crimper. Place stripped wire in terminal. With crimper on solid surface, strike crimp ram with hammer 1-2 times. When hammer impact feels solid, the crimp is complete. With a die crimper it can be frustrating to get the right die to work due to the difference in tolerance of wire strand size and terminal wall thickness. For example, if you have a 2 AWG cable from one brand, a 2 AWG lug from another, and a crimper with a 2 AWG die, you might not be able to get the perfect crimp because of the varying differences. The benefit of a dieless crimper like the TH0007 is that there are no dies to choose from and it's infinitely adjustable. If you just need to do a handful of quick solid crimps and don't want to fuss with sizing issues, an indent crimper is a solid solution. On behalf of our team here in Fremont, California: thank you to all the customers who have allowed us into your homes, shops, garages, and places of work. TEMCo Industrial has been a leader in power and industrial equipment and tools since 1968. We’re proud to offer quality tools at affordable prices backed by our knowledgeable support. We believe that any DIYer or professional who works with their hands is doing honorable work and so we do our best to respect the trade or craft. Note: Some crimpers come with a gauge, but with variations in wire, terminal wall thickness and material used, this feature is a recipe for bad crimps. Using the force method above will ensure perfect crimps every time. Once the terminal completely envelopes the wire, the crimper will not move and when struck will feel "solid".

  • Love this tool, would buy again.
Solid, excellent tool. Purchased almost 9 years ago, I have crimped over 60 Lugs, mostly 1/0AWG and a few 4AWG. I have never had a faulty crimp, and it has worked exceptionally well over the years. I have recently come across a hammer-crimp detractor on the diysolarforum, but for me, this tool and its crimps have always worked and had zero issues. Still works like brand new almost 3 years after the 5 year warranty. It’s now selling for $6.50 less than I paid. ... show more

  • THIS TOOL WORKS GREAT!
On big lugs my hand strength isn't what it used to be so this tool comes in handy. Works great too, crimps are strong. I dont know why they can't fix the spring from popping out but its easy to push back in. Other than that minor problem this tool is great.

  • RV wiring upgrade. Great little tool! Works perfect!!
Bought this to make my own cables for an RV wiring upgrade. Worth every penny. It's smaller than you'd expect, but quite tough. I've made multiple cables using 4/0 welding wire, 2 awg welding wire, 1awg thhn and 6 awg stranded wire. This crimper handled them all perfectly. Pro tips: Use good copper lugs appropriate for the gauge wire you're crimping. Find a firm surface, concrete or steel will do. Use a small sledge, 2-4 lbs, but one that you can still operate comfortably with one hand. Hold the lug snug to the wire with one hand and hammer with the other hand, at least for the first tap or two. Start with a decent tap, just to seat the crimper in the lug so when you whack it with the next strikes it won't slip. 4-5 good whacks (for 4/0, less for small wire), you'll hear the sound change as you compact that wire and turn it into essentially solid metal at the crimp. When that sound changes, you're crimped! No adjustments needed between different wire sizes, it's self adjusting. I also added solder to my connections. I found this worked best: flux the copper wire and the inside of the lug beforehand, then crimp as described, then heat it up and add solder (some of my larger lugs had no holes in the lug, other than the big one the wire goes in, so I drilled a 1/8" or so hole in the lug to add the solder thru. Worked great, but honestly, you don't even need to solder these connections. The crimper makes them that strong! Recommend heat shrink wrap, the good thick kind with glue inside. Strengthens the connections, makes it waterproof and looks professional ... show more

  • Great
Solid, affordable, does its job. Cheaper than the knockoffs but better quality. Good job Amazon showing the more expensive knockoffs first. I wish there was a way to swap between a plus and a minus on the crimp imprint but it's not a big deal, that's what red and black heatshrink are for.

  • Budget tool for a good looking finish
As a lug crimping tool, this does the job, and not only that, the crimps hold really well. That goes to say, assuming the end user is using heat shrink for every lug as well as proper wire stripping methods. The tool is very straightforward, easy to use, and will take the abuse. The crimp will hold the wire and lug together tight, but the style of crimp can still fail, due to it being crushed or hammered down on one side, compared to other crimpers which squeezes the entire lug. Its also a little difficult to hold the wire inside the lug before hammering the tool. Other than that, this is a great product. I would recommend to beginners and others who seldom do wiring, however I would suggest solder methods or better lug crimpers for the everyday electrician ... show more

  • decent for someone who doesn't have to make crimps this big very often
Surprisingly, a pretty good tool given the price. Once you've used it a bit the paint in the square channel will start to wear and it'll start to bind, but a few drops of oil get it moving up and down easily again.

  • Solid tool! Just get it already.
This thing works awesome! Makes solid crimps on 4awg stereo wire with a 4# sledge. No regrets.

  • Crimping ain't easy
Hydraulic crimpers are the best choice, but for less use this hammer crimper works great. Be sure to mount this before use.
