Cable crimper Knipex 97 53 08 SB

The Knipex 97 53 08 SB cable crimper is a hand tool designed for precise crimping of insulated and non-insulated connectors. At 190 mm length and approximately 505 g weight, the tool combines compact dimensions with leverage suitable for repeated use. Its hardened working jaws and ergonomic handles provide stable force transmission and a consistent crimp profile for a variety of cable and connector types commonly used in electrical and electronic installations.

Advantages

The tool delivers accurate and repeatable crimps due to precisely machined jaws and a robust pivot design. Ergonomic handles reduce hand fatigue during extended use while the durable construction resists wear from regular mechanical strain. Its compact size allows access to tighter workspaces without sacrificing mechanical advantage, and the consistent crimp geometry supports reliable electrical and mechanical connections.

Key specifications

• Overall length: 190 mm
• Approximate weight: 505 g
• Suitable for a range of connector sizes commonly used in electrical installations
• Hardened crimping jaws for wear resistance
• Ergonomic handles for improved grip and control

How to use

Select the appropriate connector and cable size, strip the conductor to the recommended length, and insert the connector onto the conductor. Position the connector between the crimping jaws so that the conductor and barrel sit fully inside the crimp area. Squeeze the handles with steady pressure until the connector is compressed to form a secure mechanical and electrical joint. Inspect the crimp to ensure proper deformation and retention of the conductor.

Usage recommendations

Use the tool only on connectors and conductor sizes recommended by the connector manufacturer. Keep the jaws clean and free from debris, periodically check for wear, and replace the tool if crimp quality degrades. Store in a dry place to avoid corrosion and lubricate the pivot point occasionally for smooth operation.
