Thomas & BettsWT111M Plier Type Crimping Tool with Cutter for A, B, C and PT Non Insulated Terminals and Splices

Good classic crimps, replacing the one I lost at work

Read some reviews and yes it was the perfect width for the terminals. Very satisfied

I have used this same model wire crimper for forty plus year. It has remanded unchanged! Don't fix if it isn't broken!!! It is a high-quality crimper that will give the user a lifetime of use.

Excellent crimper. I use with non insulated terminals that I get from Waytek and Del City. It crimps so tight that you will never pull the connections apart without breaking a wire. Very solid. Much better connections than using the colored splices with heat shrink built in. Those work decently but the crimpers don’t always crimp them tightly enough, and the shrunken heat shrink makes them still rather bulky if you need to fit a lot of them in a loom. Non insulated with added heat shrink makes for a thinner connection that fits better next to other spliced connections. The only downside is having to remember to put the heat shrink in place BEFORE you crimp both sides of the splice. Otherwise you’ll be cutting it out and adding in wire and more splices.

One of my favorite tools!1/3 the cost of fancy ratcheting ones and this one is faster, easier to use, and just as good if not better. I have the $142 ratcheting butt splice crimper from Prowire (which is where I get most of my parts from). However, this Thomas @ Betts WT111M crimper is my go-to.The smaller of the two indents works perfectly on a smaller 22 AWG wire in a parallel butt splice. If you haven't used parallel butt splices before, they are a game-changer, just make sure to find the ones that don't have a seam in them.

I have both T&B crimpers. They work very well.

I have been using this particular crimping tool for quite a few years. The one I have is still working like the day I got it almost 40 years ago. I bought two new ones to give as Christmas presents to my son and son-in-law because this is the only crimping tool I have found that gives me a good, solid crimp. All of the other tools I've tried, and I have 3 or 4 others, won't give me a crimp that I can't pull apart. They have all failed. This tool gives a great crimp that I can't pull apart and I won't use anything else.

This manufacturer has been making these years and years. High quality. Over priced. Plastic coating on handles is a joke. Dropped the one time and cracked plastic coating. They are electrical crimper folks!!! Can't you make a better coating? I'll shrink some high quality shrink tube over them. Of course they'll last for EVERY. I have 2 old pairs that are probably 30 years old
