The Knipex 97 53 Twistor16 Self Adjusting Crimping Pliers are professional-grade crimping pliers designed for wire ferrule termination across an extensive capacity range. These innovative pliers feature a 360° rotating crimp head with 8 locking positions, allowing wire ferrules to be crimped from virtually any working position. The self-adjusting mechanism automatically adapts to different cross-sections from 0.14 to 16 mm² (AWG 26-6), eliminating the need for manual adjustment between wire sizes. The crimp opening is accessible from both sides, enabling extra-long wire ferrules to be fed in easily. Twin wire ferrules up to 2 x 6 mm² can be crimped effectively, whilst the square crimp profile ensures secure, professional terminations. An integral lock with self-releasing mechanism guarantees repetitive, high-quality crimps with consistent results. The toggle lever mechanism reinforces manual force, making the tool light and comfortable to use whilst still delivering the necessary crimping pressure. Ideal for electricians and electrical contractors working on control panels, installation work, and industrial wiring applications where reliable wire ferrule terminations are essential.
