Draper Expert Quick Change Ratchet Action Terminal Crimping Tool

The Draper Expert Quick Change Ratchet Action Terminal Crimping Tool is a professional-grade crimper designed for reliable, high-quality electrical terminal connections. Engineered from durable carbon steel with hardened and tempered interchangeable jaws, this 220mm tool delivers consistent crimping performance across a wide range of wire sizes and terminal types. The quick-change jaw system accommodates both insulated and non-insulated terminals, making it exceptionally versatile for automotive, marine and general electrical work. The ratchet action mechanism ensures uniform compression on every crimp, eliminating incomplete connections that can lead to circuit failures. Colour-coded crimping channels (red, blue and yellow) provide clear guidance for matching the correct wire gauge to terminal size. Supplied with two complete sets of interchangeable jaws, this crimping tool covers comprehensive capacity ranges. It handles insulated terminals from 0.5-1.0mm² (red channel), 1.5-2.5mm² (blue channel), and 4.0-6.0mm² (yellow channel), whilst also accommodating non-insulated crimps in 1.5mm², 2.5mm², 6mm² and 10mm² sizes. The chemically blacked finish resists corrosion, whilst PVC grips provide comfortable handling during extended use.
