Crimping pliers for insulated and non-insulated end sleeves 0.25 - 6.00 mm²
Precise crimping – which is why they are called Knipex PreciForce
Crimping is high-precision work. Crimp profile and crimping pressure must be precisely matched to the end sleeves (ferrules) to be crimped and the corresponding conductor to create a connection that is permanently mechanically and electrically safe and secure. All pliers in the Knipex PreciForce range impress due to their light, compact design with toggle lever reinforcement of manual force and precision crimp profile. The result: the ideal, hand-friendly amount of pressure is exerted with precision on the end sleeves being connected to the cable.
Integral lock for accurately repeated crimping
With the Knipex PreciForce, the user can work freely because the pliers do the job of measuring manual force for him. The crimping pressure of the Knipex 97 52 38 is ideally set (calibrated) in the factory to end sleeves (ferrules) with a capacity of between 0.25 and 6.0 mm². The integral lock blocks premature opening of the pliers before the set upper limit has been achieved using hand pressure. The pliers can only be opened once the optimal crimping pressure has been reached, enabling the user to concentrate completely on crimping. The integral lock can be released manually where necessary, and the user can adjust the pressure of the pliers if need be.
Accurately machined, durable crimp profiles
With the Knipex PreciForce series, every crimp application has its own version with specially machined crimp profile. One specialist pair of pliers, one application. The Knipex PreciForce is manufactured from special high-grade chrome vanadium electric steel and is oil-hardened. The Knipex PreciForce 97 52 38 is therefore a purchase that will last for a long time and for a special field of application: the crimping of non-insulated and insulated end sleeves (ferrules).
