more expensive crimps, harder on the tools?

this kit has 2 jaws for nylon crimps, I think the first one in the kit contents top to bottom is regular wall nylon and then the 3rd one down is thin wall nylon

But I only buy one type on digikey so I don't know how well it works on the thin one, not sure I have any around.

Fuck ultrafast though, since its a trapazoid.

teus:
trapezoid, yet different from the trapezoid/hexagon ones for crimping BNC connectors?

coppercone2:
i like circles

yes, the plastic is a trapazoid like you would draw on paper

If you're looking for "quick disconnect" style connectors, then you can just search that with Panduit/Molex/3M/JST, those are all quality brands so see whichever is more available in your region.

An example here from Mouser.

It is so annoying to search for crimps ahahah, you're just gonna have to order a handful from each just to experiment with. But to get one that is more compatible with common tooling, I think your best bet is to find one that has a lot of official compatible tooling, even better if it specifies the crappy hand pliers too. Check this Panduit data sheet here for example.

If the barrel/sleeve looks a little fat and round then you have a much better chance versus the slim trapezoid type crimps like the damn TE ultra-fast.

The thing is, home depot might sell the crimp tool for those. Because I am pretty sure they sold trapezoid crimps and they have that klien tools ratcheting crimper, which might work on them, but I am not sure.

actually, I think I got those trapezoids on digikey. Home depot might sell the standard ones. You would have to look.

actually, it looks like the tyco might be flat bottom. Whatever they sell in the store next to those.. might be the tool for it.
