Crimps bare or insulated terminals and splices on 10–22 AWG wireKnife-to-anvil blades provide long-lasting cutting performanceHigh leverage for easy crimping and cuttingDrop-forged, high-carbon steel constructionThe IDEAL Made in the U.S.A. tool line uses forged-steel construction, which provides extra strength and hardness without sacrificing flexibility. Cuts, crimps and splices 10-22 AWG wires for insulated and non-insulated crimp connectors with less force due to a high-leverage pivot.
