The Crimpwell Angled Crimping Plier (P/N 5912) from OTC, a division of Service Solutions LLC, helps technicians repair broken, frayed and exposed wires in hard-to-reach locations.

"Conventional crimper designs can often make a simple crimp even more difficult because the technician has to fight access to the location as well as the tool itself," said Dirk Skogerboe, aftermarket Article manager, professional specialty tools at Service Solutions, LLC.

The tool’s angled design keeps the connector parallel to the pliers - improving the ability to insure wire is properly seated in the connector as well as securing a durable, robust crimp, says OTC.

The universal crimping design accommodates soft wire insulated or un-insulated - solid or stranded in sizes 10 - 22 AWG. A cutting feature is included for quicker preparation. Forged from high carbon alloy steel, the 9" (228mm) length - and protective grip - increase leverage and ensure a secure crimp.
