<p>Found the original order from 2014 and it looks like my original
open barrel die also came from Farnell,

I think I also bought one that did even smaller connectors from
china but I can't find the order right now.<br>

<div>Thanks, that's interesting as they look like the exact same
crimpers i have, mine came with the red blue yellow die for
the insulated connectors used in cars/bikes and works great
for them.</div>
<div>The die i ordered for the 2.54mm pins was a hs type from
aliexpress and fits the crimper but i must have picked the
wrong die as it doesn't crimp tight enough, do you know which
one works for the generic 2.54mm pins/plugs? And is that the
one you got from cpc? (I'd can't afford to wait the 2 months
delivery from China)</div>

<p>I have a similar set of ratchet crimpers, when I
was looking in to it I discovered that the price of
crimpers seems to depend a lot on which die comes
with it. I bought a set of crimpers with the wrong
die from Farnell and the die I wanted separately
from I think CPC for less money than the crimpers
with the correct die from either place.</p>
<p>These are my crimpers:

<p>They are compatible with what aliexpress calls HS
crimpers when shopping for additional dies.<br

I've had pretty poor results with it so i was

<div>Does anyone have any experience with these
(Chinese?) crimpers, are they worth bothering
with? The proper tool for these connectors is
several times the price and more than i could
justify spending.</div>
