TE Connectivity Portable Crimp Tools

TE Connectivity Portable Crimp Tools

TE Connectivity (TE) offers a wide array of portable crimp tools that combine ease of use with quality, reliability and precision. These engineered tools crimp to exacting specifications for TE terminals.

Manual (hand) crimp tools are complimented by multiple power-assist options including battery, electric, hydraulic and pneumatic. Power-assist tools improve productivity, decrease applied cost per crimp and also help reduce workplace injuries, such as repetitive stress injuries (RSI).

TE portable crimp tools are primarily used for crimping loose piece terminals, contacts or splices on wire and are suitable for serial production, field installations, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) applications.
