## Overview

The ENGINEER PAD-12 is a precision Japanese-made crimping tool featuring interchangeable die plates for versatile pin sizes, integrated wire stripping and cutting, and ergonomic grips. Designed for professionals and hobbyists alike, it offers a modular, space-saving solution that ensures perfect crimps across a broad range of electrical and audio projects.

## Description

This is an ultra precise crimping tool, with cimping die plates that can be easily swapped for other sizes - this allows an upgrade path. For example, whilst initially you might only have a need to crimp very small crimp terminal pins, you might subsequently have a need to crimp larger crimp pins - in this scenario, you just need to purchase the required larger die plate set. It also means that if you buy the other two available die plate sets available, you then have the capability to crimp a broad range of pin types & sizes - without having to own numerous crimping tools (which would be costly and add clutter and extra weight to your tool case). The pad-12 comes with one die plate - the pad-12s (size M) fitted - the die widths of the pad-12s are 1.6mm, 1.9mm, 2.2mm, 2.5mm, 2.8mm and 3.1mm. Made in Japan.

Review: Makes nice crimps - Seems to make a solid crimp for loudspeaker and other small electrical crimps. Also purchased the different jaw size. Useful for lots of small electrical and audio projects.
Review: Genuinely the best crimper available in the UK for molex pins - Genuinely the best crimper available in the UK for molex pins, excluding the genuine molex crimper as it costs £400. while you may need to crimp twice compared to other crimpers on the market, it doesn't actually take much longer, and its the perfect crimp every time. If you make custom wiring for PC, I would definitely recommend this tool, it may take a while to get used to, but the quality is much better. The cutter is also very handy, and works well as a stripper too.
