Detailed description
 | Self-adjusting crimping pliers for wire ferrules with rotatable crimping die Crimps wire ferrules from 0.14 to 16 mm² – from any direction! Difficult-to-reach cable ends? These no longer pose a problem with the Twistor16. These crimping pliers from KNIPEX crimp wire ferrules from almost any working position. The secret: The slim crimping die, which can be freely rotated 360°, can be used from both sides, thus ensuring a great deal of flexibility and even more time saved during electrical installation work. Because the square crimp profile automatically adapts to the different cross-sections in the capacity range from 0.14 to 16 mm², no manual adjustment is required: Simply turn the crimping die towards the wire with ferrule as required, then insert, press, done! |
Jack of all trades for practically every crimping task
The KNIPEX Twistor16 not only crimps single cables with all common cross-sections up to 16 mm², but also twin wire ferrules up to 2 x 6 mm². It crimps wire ferrules up to 16 mm in length in a single operational step. Longer wire ferrules can be crimped using the crimping die accessible from both sides (no depth limit!) by simply pushing the ferrule forward for a second crimping stroke.
 | KNIPEX Twistor16: quick to use, easy crimping, consistently high crimp precision Firstly, you can work faster thanks to the self-adjusting adaptation to the wire ferrule size. Secondly, you also work more effortlessly thanks to the ingenious toggle lever mechanism (good force transmission), two-component grips (ergonomics!) and low weight (only 478 grams). And thirdly, the releasable forced locking mechanism of the Twistor16 guarantees consistently high crimping quality. Fourthly, with the unique design of the Twistor16, crimping is possible even in tricky workspaces. One more thing: The special quality, oil-hardened crimping pliers made of chrome vanadium electric steel are extremely hard wearing. The result: a long service life! |
