This is a very well made crimp tool for the money, which performs really efficiently on multi strand cables.Firstly, I would say that if you're in the market for one of these tools, and have not used one before, then take a look at the excellent series of YouTube videos from eFIXX which give a comprehensive guide to need and use, for ferrules.This kit comes with a set of the German DIN 46228 standard coloured ferrules. There's some confusion around the colour standard as there's a French, and two different German colour codes for ferrule sizes.This ie excellent value for the price, and far better made than many of the cheaper ones on the market.Care must be taken to adjust the tension control on the head otherwise excess pressure is needed, and it's a hell of a job to release the locking ratchet lever, ( see picture) needing to use something other than your finger!Hexagonal crimpers are ideal for smaller gauge conductors, but for larger ones I prefer a square section, which I think fits better into the screw encloure.The one thing I didn't like is the locking ratchet, which is not really needed, and can sometimes be a real pain to release.All .in all though, good value for the price, and works well
