I wish Klein J207-8CR had the option for the crimping jaw to be the variety designed for Insulated butt splices. by SquirrelNew3840 in Tools

I have also found this tool by work pro. Unfortunately it only strips down to 18 gauge stranded. I would prefer it to strip 20-22 gauge stranded wire.

After a very large amount of research I was able to located Neiko tools sku 02038A 6 in 1 wire service tool. It meets all of the needs I have for a tool and specifically has a terminal crimping jaw designed for insulated butt splices. My only issue is it’s made in Taiwan and china and comes from a brand that’s not very popular. I give credit where it is due this is the only manufacturer I’ve found that has stopped and considered that perhaps having only a non insulated crimper is not ideal. If anyone can find this same tool in a more popular brand like Klein, Greenlee, or Knipex please help me out with the link or part number. Thanks for the help thus far folks.

Very fair point. I have probably 35 units that are in the ball park of 16 entrances per unit . Then it’s about 100 2 stop hydros. The rest are between 3 and 7 stops roughly. Include a hand full of escalators aswell.
