jessdabest77 Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I bought a 10 ton hydralic crimper and wanted to know what connector's I can use on it?Mainly,the ring terminal's with the split down the middle,or does it have to be the solid terminals,without the split?

rockFord_Expedition Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Ive never tried the split ones, they're a bit thin and flimsy. I wouldn't skimp on those.

TRON Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I've used them, not the best because you have to squeeze the shit out of them to get a strong crimp.

Skullz Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Use copper lugs, the stamped steel rings with the seam in the middle will not hold over time and become loose. You can get the lugs with or without tinning, if you get the ones without tinning just heat them up and spread some solder over them after crimping to protect the copper from corrosion. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crownvictoria31 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Sky high audio. Great quality and good prices. They have packages with heat shrinks aswell. Are you doing 1/0 gauge wires? Is a 10 ton more then enough for 1/0 gauge wire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skullz Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 As long as it is a one piece copper lug, you'll be fine. Most lugs are pretty much the same thing. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
