Firstly, you can work faster thanks to the self-adjusting adaptation to the wire ferrule size. Secondly, you also work more effortlessly thanks to the ingenious toggle lever mechanism (good force transmission), two-component grips (ergonomics!) and low weight (only 478 grams). And thirdly, the releasable forced locking mechanism of the Twistor16® guarantees consistently high crimping quality. Fourthly, with the unique design of the Twistor16®, crimping is possible even in tricky workspaces. One more thing: The special quality, oil-hardened crimping pliers made of chrome vanadium electric steel are extremely hard wearing. The result: a long service life!
Crimps wire ferrules from 0.14 to 16mm² – from any direction!
Difficult-to-reach cable ends? These no longer pose a problem with the Twistor16®. These crimping pliers from KNIPEX crimp wire ferrules from almost any working position. The secret: The slim crimping die, which can be freely rotated 360°, can be used from both sides, thus ensuring a great deal of flexibility and even more time saved during electrical installation work. Because the square crimp profile automatically adapts to the different cross-sections in the capacity range from 0.14 to 16 mm², no manual adjustment is required: Simply turn the crimping die towards the wire with ferrule as required, then insert, press, done!
Jack of all trades for practically every crimping task
The KNIPEX Twistor16® not only crimps single cables with all common cross-sections up to 16 mm², but also twin wire ferrules up to 2 x 6 mm². It crimps wire ferrules up to 16 mm in length in a single operational step. Longer wire ferrules can be crimped using the crimping die accessible from both sides (no depth limit!) by simply pushing the ferrule forward for a second crimping stroke.
