Our Handy Crimp hardware and Nicopress Hand Crimp Tool shown below are for use in low load applications only. When properly installed these fittings develop approximately 70% of 7x7 cable strength. For high load applications please refer to the other tools available here for a professional swage. Please also note that hand crimping hardware can be labor intensive and leaves three distinct crimp marks unlike our machine swage which is smooth.

Our Handy Crimp hardware is available in two wire sizes (1/8" and 3/16". Look for the Handy Crimp logo for products available with studs that can be hand crimped.

For instructions on how to use this tool please visit our Installation Guide help pages. Cable Cutter also required.
