Crimping Pliers King Tony 9AF11-60 — 60 mm plastic-insulated automotive wire crimper

King Tony 9AF11-60 crimping pliers are designed for crimping plastic-insulated automotive wires with a 60 mm jaw length. This hand tool provides precise mechanical pressure to form secure crimps on vehicle wiring, terminals and connectors used in automotive repair, maintenance and wiring installations. The 60 mm crimping area is intended for standard insulated terminals and splices commonly found in passenger and commercial vehicles.

Advantages

The crimper delivers consistent mechanical force to ensure repeatable crimps and improved contact reliability. Its jaw geometry is shaped to accomodate common plastic-insulated terminals, reducing the risk of conductor damage while producing a firm hold. The pliers are built for workshop use with an ergonomic handle profile that helps maintain a steady grip during repetitive tasks. The tool’s compact design allows access to confined spaces in vehicle assemblies and wiring harnesses.

Suitable for

• Crimping plastic-insulated automotive terminals and splices
• Electrical repairs and maintenance on passenger cars, trucks and motorcycles
• Installation and replacement of connectors in vehicle wiring harnesses
• Professional and DIY automotive electrical work requiring manual crimping

Key specifications

• Crimping jaw length: 60 mm suitable for standard insulated terminals
• Intended use: plastic-insulated automotive wires and terminals
• Tool type: manual hand crimper / crimping pliers
• Grip: ergonomic handles designed for repetitive use and improved control
• Design: compact profile for access in confined engine bay and dashboard spaces

How to use

Select the appropriate insulated terminal and strip the conductor to the recommended length for that terminal. Insert the stripped conductor and the terminal into the crimping jaw so the wire sits fully in the barrel section. Squeeze the handles evenly and firmly until the crimp is completed and the terminal is securely compressed onto the conductor. Inspect the crimp for full compression and good conductor retention before installing the connector in the vehicle wiring harness.

Usage recommendations

Use this crimper with terminals and wire sizes it is designed for to avoid poor crimps or conductor damage. Keep the jaws clean and free of corrosion; store the tool dry. For critical electrical connections, verify mechanical and electrical integrity after crimping and, where applicable, use heat-shrink tubing or insulating boots to protect the crimped joint.
