Crimping tool Knipex 97 49 14 for uninsulated connectors, compatible with 97 49 13

The Knipex 97 49 14 crimping tool for uninsulated connectors is a manually operated hand tool designed to create reliable mechanical crimps for conductor-to-terminal connections. Compatible with model 97 49 13, this tool is intended for use on uninsulated electrical connectors where a consistent, gas-tight crimp is required. Its manual operation provides the user with control and precision during crimping tasks in electrical installation, maintenance and repair.

Advantages

The tool delivers uniform crimp quality for uninsulated connectors, helping to achieve secure, low-resistance electrical contacts. Manual actuation allows fine control over the crimping process, and compatibility with the 97 49 13 model provides flexibility for users who may already have compatible tooling. The design focuses on mechanical reliability and repeatable performance for professional use in workshop and field environments.

Suitable for

• Crimping uninsulated electrical connectors on wires and cables
• Electrical installation and panel wiring tasks
• Maintenance and repair of electrical equipment and harnesses
• Field service work where manual crimping is required

Key specifications

• Type: Manual hand crimping tool for uninsulated connectors
• Compatibility: Compatible with model 97 49 13
• Application: Creates mechanical, gas-tight crimps for conductor-to-terminal connections
• Operation: Hand-operated for controlled, precise use

How to use

Place the appropriate uninsulated connector into the crimping jaw, position the stripped conductor fully into the connector, and squeeze the handles evenly until the crimp cycle is complete and the connector is securely compressed around the conductor. Inspect the crimp visually and, where applicable, by pull test to confirm a solid mechanical and electrical connection. Follow standard safety precautions when working with electrical conductors and ensure power is isolated before performing crimping tasks.

Usage recommendations

Use this tool with the correct connector sizes and conductor cross-sections for which the crimping dies are intended. Regularly inspect the crimping dies for wear, keep the tool clean and lightly lubricated on pivot points, and store in a dry place to maintain performance and prolong service life.
