Knipex Crimp System Pliers

The Knipex 974305 crimping pliers are designed for professional electrical applications and specifically developed for non-insulated open connectors with a plug width of 4.8 mm and 6.3 mm. This versatile tool handles nearly 1000 different crimping applications, providing a comprehensive solution for various wiring tasks. Three precision crimp profiles allow for processing wire cross-sections from 0.5 mm² to 6.0 mm², corresponding to AWG 20 to AWG 10. The nearly parallel crimping motion ensures consistently high-quality connections through precision jaws and a locking force system that can be released when needed. Factory-calibrated crimping pressure guarantees reliable results across all applications. A lever transmission system with significant force amplification enables energy-saving operation and reduces fatigue during extended use. Ergonomically shaped handles with multi-component grips enhance comfort and control. Multiple positioning aids allow for precise placement of connectors during the crimping process. The tool measures 200 mm in length, 96 mm in width, and 17 mm in height, with a weight of 618 g. The construction features a brown finish on the body and head of the pliers, with plastic components in the grip area. Additional profiles are available upon request for applications outside the standard crimp profiles. This tool complies with the REACH regulation and contains no substances of very high concern. It is suitable for professional technicians and electrical engineers who require precise and durable crimping performance in industrial, automotive, and electrical installation contexts.
