PEBA Crimping Tool and JST Connector Kit - 14 Types of 2.5 mm JST-SM Connectors & Crimp Pins, 2/3/4/5/6/7-pin JST Housings and Contacts, for DIY Electronics - Suitable for AWG 32-20 Wires

These are actually way nicer than I expected. The case they come in is really sturdy and arranged well. There’s a good assortment of connectors and plenty of each- it’s a reasonably good value. However: the crimping tool is the best I have ever used. I have a couple of cheap pack-in crimpers from other sets that feel gritty and imprecise. I always end up ruining as many ends as I actually successfully crimp. The tool that came with this set feels incredibly smooth and just works better even though it’s the same general design. I’m sure it’s not as good as like a $60 tool or something but it works for me. I also really, really appreciated the guide that it came with. The documentation was very easy to understand and it actually tells you which connectors go with which metal bits, what gauge of wire will work with each, and which size cutout on the crimper to use. Other kits I’ve bought don’t tell you anything so it’s a bit of trial and error.

Solid tool. The packaging isn't perfect, but I can't knock it. I closed the top without the tray for the tool in it and the pieces all fell out and got mixed up.

Should be part of every sparky’s toolkit.

The actual crimpers and tools feel good, in terms of tolerances there is very little play. The one thing I dont like about this kit is the dupont connectors, the plastic housings do not hold the connectors good. The JST connectors are good though.

Great quality and valve Works excellent

Bought this so I could crimp some dupont connectors to connect some wires to header pins. I think this tool set is great value. The tool itself is very nice, operates smoothly, and feels high quality. There are also plenty of connectors and housings included. I like that it also comes with a storage box to keep everything together. I also appreciated the instructions that are included. If you are new to crimping these types of connectors (like I was) make sure to read these carefully and reference the diagrams/images for whichever type of connector you are crimping. The direction you feed the connector+wire into the tool does matter. After one false start (my first crimp attempt was unsuccessful due to me not reading the instructions), I read the instructions and was able to crimp multiple connectors successfully with no issues.

The hardest thing is trying to figure out the specifications for the different types of connectors as a hobbyist. I had ordered a kit of JST connectors from china because the seemed like the most common type. After reading a bunch, I was able to determine what I needed was the JST XH type but I did not have a crimper. My 3D printer was getting a height sensor and of course the 'high qwality' chinese kit did not have the proper connectors for my Ender 3 V2 motherboard. I decided that since this kit said the jaws were EDM cut, it might have some accuracy. I work in aircraft and the tools are VERY expensive, so when I found these, I thought I would take a chance. Came in a nice retail box, the actual kit box is SUPER nice with a removeable tray to store a complete variety of the connectors, and at that securely so they don't migrate into other compartments. The crimpers are better than average with the jaws being very accurate. I was able to clip the 5-wire harness flat across, install 5 new female ends and snap them directly into the connector for a exceptionally professional result. It also does SM types too, but I would just purchase a separate pack for cheap. Great for drones, electronic projects and upgrades. The main reason I got this specific set is that they said 'High-precision jaws' and I can attest that they are. I crimped some 22ga Tefzel aircraft wire and the crimps all came out perfect, with the crimps secure and the strain reliefs not damaging the wire insulation, like in the ad photo. I HIGHLY recommend this kit.

Overall this is a great set. The crimper feels solid, and the big assortment of connectors is just what I needed. That said, making these adapters is trickier than expected! The included instructions are good, but be prepared to waste several pieces before you get it right (if you're an absolute noob like me). Look closely at the metal part for the little "tooth" that latches into the plastic part. It's easy to crush that in while crimping such that it won't secure to the connector. My workaround was to make sure that the latch/tooth was hanging about 1mm out of the "back" of the crimper before pressing down; when I aligned the metal pieces flush with the front, I kept mashing it. It's a bit arts-and-craftsy, but you can definitely get a hang of it with some practice. The crimper works great, it's me that could you some improvement!

Extremely fast delivery over Christmas period. Crimpers and pliers have a solid feel and good range of connectors provided. The case with its internal straps and pocket plus the good-sized storage box is a useful combination for keeping it all neat and tidy. Perfect for making up Grove to Dupont/JSK adaptor cables for my Ardunio projects.

Tangen zijn kwalitatief van goede stevige kwaliteit de bek van de krimptang is te vervangen het assortiment doosje is netjes en handig

This tool is the latest in many crimpers that I have owned. I specifically got this for crimping JST-XH terminals for 24AWG up to 18 AWG and it functions flawlessly. I have used it for smaller wire gauge as well. The crimp does not shear or distort either of the crimp ears on the terminals and its width allows for both wire and sheathing crimping, but is not too wide for the wire portion that is common on cheap tools.

This crimoer works perfectly. Crimp 100% every time.

Muchas variedad de conectores. Pinza crimpadora de buena calidad. Muy contento con el set y el precio
