K-ELECTRIC 101400 zelfinstellende rateltang voor adereindhulzen 0,25-10 mm²

Electricians and panel builders who terminate stranded wire into screw terminals rely on the K-ELECTRIC 101400 to crimp wire end ferrules from 0.25 to 10 mm² (23–7 AWG). The self-adjusting mechanism selects the correct square crimp profile for each ferrule size, while the ratcheting action ensures a complete, repeatable crimp every time. The quick-release lever lets you open the jaws mid-cycle if a ferrule is misaligned.

Key specifications

• Crimping range: 0.25 – 10 mm² (23 – 7 AWG)
• Crimp profile: square
• Mechanism: self-adjusting with ratchet
• Compatible ferrule types: insulated and non-insulated
• Jaw material: high-quality tool steel
• Handle: ergonomic plastic, black/red
• Length: 175 mm
• Release: quick-release ratchet

Why choose it

The self-adjusting design eliminates guesswork: insert a ferrule, squeeze, and the tool automatically applies the correct crimp force and die size. The ratchet prevents premature release, guaranteeing a gas-tight connection that resists pull-out and vibration. Ergonomic handles reduce hand fatigue during repetitive work.

Ideal use cases

• Terminating stranded conductors in industrial control panels
• Preparing wires for screw-type terminal blocks
• Field service where a compact, one-hand crimping tool is needed
• Working with both insulated and uninsulated ferrules

Good to know

The tool is 175 mm long and weighs approximately 0.35 kg, making it easy to carry in a tool bag. The jaws are made of hardened tool steel for long service life. The quick-release mechanism allows you to abort a crimp before full compression if needed.
