I have done a search for these and I can only find this model in the US, where can you get these in the UK for ÂŁ20?

They do look good.

Mark.
 
Yeah I know, and I don't crimp or touch anything live.

you could use that argument for why do I have everything else as VDE? I like the handles. Cutters, pliers etc, everything is VDE

search for 97 71 180

thats the code for them, they are now ÂŁ26 on amazon but worth it.

there very good and i find them easier than rachets.

a good tip with knipex is always look at the code on the handle, it makes comparing prices a lot easier

(i cant find them for under ÂŁ26 now but i know i paid less)

there worth a lot more imho though

It looks like they have changed the design, the only ones I can find now only crimp 1 - 16mm not .25 - 16mm.

Very annoying.

use the part number only in seach or knipex then part number

your looking at a different model, knipex makes different versions of the same tools that look very similar to each other

I was looking at the picture of the tool (same as above) and it only covers from 1 - 16mm, I guess the pictures is wrong.

Pleased about that I will get it ordered.

Thank you
 
Are the Knipex and Haupa ones pictured in this thread any good for copper lugs, or just really suitable for ferrule ends ? I'm looking for a more compact tool for lugging onto earthing and bonding cables up to 16mm and these look as if they might do.
