poorfish88 Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 That's the one I got... It's beefy, it has some die that could crimp a coke can, or so it seems. You won't have to worry about them being big enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poorfish88 Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 my habor and freight crimper worked for my execution audio 0 gauge i used skyhigh copper terminals Execution audio is way over size like shca? My Stinger HPM drown in shca lugs. The lug flowed out of the die before the wire was tight. It was a tight crimp but I was told it was too tight cause of the lug being too big.

AndrewFrankDicharia Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 It got here today. smallest die is to large to do 8 guage only lugs i had on hand lol. Already ordered 4awg lugs will report when those get in. the heatshrink is amazing looks to be the same size for all guages. And still shrunk down to holy very small 8AWG just fine and tight.
