Crimp tools and cable strippers are used to prepare cable for installation. There are many different types of crimp tools and cable strippers. Examples include cable tie tools, RJ45 crimp tools, hand crimp tools, and compression crimp tools. A cable tie tool is used for tightening ties around wire and cable bundles. An RJ45 crimp tool is designed to crimp and cut the wires of the EZ-RJ45 connector. An RJ45 crimp tool will also work on most other RJ-11, RJ-12 and RJ-45 connectors (excluding AMP). A hand crimp tool is used in situations that present restrictions to crimp equipment size, weight, and maneuverability such as those presented with wire harness assembly boards. These crimping tools can be either manually-driven or power-driven. A compression crimp tool enables the termination of coax CATV F, BNC, or RCA compression connectors as well as twisted-pair modular plugs and jacks. Other crimp tools and cable strippers are commonly available.
Crimp tools and cable strippers function in a variety of ways. Crimp tools and cable strippers will properly crimp and strip solid or stranded wire, Teflon, PVC, nylon, rubber, neoprene, and
most other jacket or insulating compositions. A cable tie tool controls loose wires that can be hazardous. A cable tie tool uses a tension control lever to provide precise tightening. Another lever cuts off the ties, so no additional tie ends will be visible. An RJ45 crimp tool has a built in cable stripper as well as a wire cutter that cuts wire in one cycle. The RJ45 crimp tool consists of a steel frame with black oxide coating, weighs one pound and measures eight inches in length. The precision ground crimp dies and the full-cycle ratcheting mechanism enable the RJ45 crimp tool to perform consistent terminations. A hand crimp tool consists of a ratchet mechanism hand tool and a set of jaws. The jaws comprise of upper and lower crimp dies. The contact is correctly crimped when the crimping tool is free to open at the fully closed position, e.g., when the ratchet releases. Hand crimp tools provide for a means of accurately locating, supporting, and holding a terminal or connector in place during crimping as opposed to the operator holding the components. A compression crimp tool utilizes a full cycle mechanism to assure consistent connector shut heights. Compression crimp tools achieve maximum mechanical advantage with reasonable hand pressure. Compression crimp tools feature connector shut heights that conform to industry standards and are precisely engineered for specific connector requirements. Crimp tools and cable strippers are designed and manufactured to meet most industry specifications.

Crimp tools and cable strippers are used in many industries. Examples include the voice, video, data, signal, and electronics industries. Crimp tools and cable strippers should be Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) compliant.
