Klein Tools VDV212-008-SEN Compact Compression Crimper, F-Connector

Hasta el momento todo bien. Las he probado con conectores Klein, y con los "genéricos" y con ambos funcionan excelentes. Como no son de matraca hay que hacer un poco de presión, pero no es nada excesivo, mas que suficiente para uso ocasional. Además la construcción de las pinzas es muy buena.

Worked as expected, quality product and would recommend for compression fit RG6 connectors.

Methinks Amazon or Amazon's customers have mixed in reviews of different Klein RG-6 Compression Crimpers and perhaps the anvil design has changed after the May 7, 2009 date first available and Nov 2020. This review is for the one I received on Aug 27, 2021. I have an old trustworthy circa 2005 Sargent 3195CT Ratcheting Snap-N-Seal Installation Tool that cost a little more than three times what this one does... It certainly is much heavier duty, but unfortunately it only works for connectors that have a groove just above the hex rotatey thing with threads in it. And I got some Gilbert GF-EFC-6 RG6 Compression Connectors that do not have the groove. Boo Hoo Hoo... The anvil appears to be indestructible and non-adjustable. It did a great job on both Snap-N-Seal and Gilbert connectors, so it appears that Klein has it set to work with most popular compression connectors. See pictures. Highly Recommended!

Están bien, funcionan sin problema, fácil de usar, se ve que me van a durar bastante tiempo!

The Compression Crimper is easy to use and works perfectly. With stiff cable it helps to hold the connector in place with your finger. The reason some people cannot get a good crimp is that There Are Different Sizes (diameters) of RG6 cable. I was in the industry from 1987-1992 selling CATV parts. RG6 is sold with a single shield, double, tri-shield and quad-shield. Most of the compression connectors are large enough for triple, some are made for Quad-shield. Those connectors will slip right off of narrower cable. As I recall, I sold crimp on connectors in .342, .357, .372 and .388 barrel diameters. So, you need to buy Quad shield cable and Quad connectors, or smaller connectors with smaller cable. I purchased Klein Tools VDV812-606 connectors for RG6/6Q and Cables Direct Online 100ft White Quad Shield RG6 Coax Cable. The Klein Tools stripper prepared the cable perfectly, and the tool made perfect connections. Incidentally, I had never used compression connectors before. The instructions were perfectly clear and I had no trouble figuring out how to use the tool.
