Knipex 7-1/4" Self-Adjusting Crimping Pliers elevate electrical projects with precision and efficiency to fully meet the demands of DIY enthusiasts and professionals. 

Engineered for accurate crimping with minimum effort, these durable pliers adjust automatically to wire ferrule sizes, ensuring a precise and quick crimp.Designed for wire ferrules up to 16 mm², it can accommodate a wide capacity range from 0.08 to 16.0 mm². The integration of a ratchet mechanism, which can be unlocked, offers continuous repetitive, high-quality crimping.

Despite its robust capability, the crimping tool boasts a narrow handle width, paired with ergonomic grips for comfortable, lightweight handling. Constructed from chrome vanadium electric steel and oil-hardened for durability, the wire ferrule pliers stand out for their special quality and longevity. Fatigue is significantly reduced due to a thoughtfully designed toggle lever, enhancing the transmission of force for a smoother operation.

A unique feature is the ability to accommodate twin wire ferrules up to 2 x 4 mm² or 2 x AWG 12, with a patented design that eases the crimping of end sleeves without the need to exert manual force. This is due to an integral lock with a release mechanism that automatically adjusts the pressure applied to the ferrule. The square compression ensures a solid connection across all designated sizes, meeting the needs of both light-duty tasks and extensive installations.
