MatSailer Coax Cable Crimper,coax installation kit,Coaxial Compression Tool Kit Wire Stripper with F RG6 RG59 Connector (blue)

I ordered this because I had about a dozen coax terminations I needed to do. I started by making some test cuts on some spare coax to test the stripper. I was able to use the supplied hex key to adjust the blades on the stripper to where they were cutting as I needed (took about 4 botched attempts to get it just right). I installed one compression connector on a spare cable to make sure the compression tool and fittings were going to work as they should and was pleased at the result. The actual connections went smoothly and all are working very well.The compression tool feels solid and works well without requiring a lot of hand strength.The stripper works, but I would not count on it for doing lots of strips.The connectors are good, but I prefer having a metal compression ring.The instructions should be a bit more detailed (especially on setting up the stripper), but not enough to knock of a star. Overall, I consider this a good value for a limited number of connector installations (although I believe the compression tool may be useful for many more than the 20 connectors supplied).

It is not as well built as the one as the professional set you can buy at Home Depot for $40, but it does the job. I'm not a professional and just needed the ability to shorten the new coax cable that I installed in my home after replacing the flooring. It's great that it comes with connectors as well as the tools. Perhaps the pro tools (Klein, I think) would be smoother in operation, but not any more effective for 3x the prices of this set (and would be the dumbed down version of the Klein kit too). This kit permitted me to buy longer coax cable and cut it rather than buying shorter, more expensive pieces. I don't have to live with excess cable hanging out of the wall and now have a kit that I can use down the road should I ever need to do any similar project. Definitely worth the money.

The crimper works fine and will work on other brands of connectors. The supplied connectors are OK, but probably shouldn't be used outside as the plastic will degrade by UV sunlight. The coax stripper is not good. It takes several adjustment to get it to cut right and even then it sometimes winds the tiny wires around the center conductor (which is a dead short). You can clean up the end after the cut and make it acceptable, but it is extra work. I finally got fed up and ordered a Klein Tool coax crimper VDV110-061. Works well right out of the box. There are no adjustments to be made and no trial and error needed. Best is I don't have to remove the tiny wires wrapped around the center conductor any more.

I bought this as a personal use pack to add already wired lines to my antenna. Purchasing my home, the previous owners had satellite TV and the house was wired for about 10 TV's. there were three connecters attached, one of which needed replacement and the rest were just coax cables with no f connectors. I was able to wire all 8 wires in about 15 minutes. The stripper is easy and better than what I would normally do with a knife. the connectors are the only thing I carry reservations on as they are better than screw-ons but not nearly as good as what you would typically get from a professional installer. That being said, I have enough f heads to replace the cables I use several times, and only need to purchase f connectors if I somehow run out.

The compression tool does what it was designed to do very well and I would recommend it. I found the wire stripper to be pretty much worthless but I suspected that going in.

The compression tool works just fine but the cable strippers took a bit of adjusting with to get the proper cuts on the jacket and dielectric of the RG6. Once properly set to cut the jacket and dielectric (w/o damaging the center conductor) they work fine.The compression fittings this set come with are pretty garbage but that's why i went with another style. All in all, if you know what you're doing and have the knowledge to set the depths on the blades right in the stripper this is a good set.

I was trying to fix a coax line from an old TV antenna on the chimney. The connectors included were too large for the older Coax. I wrapped electrical tape around the end, then it fit and worked. Yes, I know they sell the other size as well, but a couple included would be nice. I'm not using it for High Speed Internet, just over the Air TV, so I can't speak for the quality of the connection, shielding, etc.

I received this coax stripper and crimper kit today. Installed two ends with it and it works perfect. I didn’t have to make any adjustments on the stripper. It cut perfectly clean through the outer cover leaving the braid and foil intact and uncut. Let the spring tension in stripper do the work. Just insert the cable into the stripper until it is flush with the opposite side and turn in the direction of the arrow until it spins free.The crimper works perfect. Just don’t over crimp. When the plastic sleeve is fully inserted, stop crimping.I would highly recommend this product. This is not rocket science and is very easy to use.

Las campanas un poco de baja calidad, cuidado porque algunos bordes cortan, fuera de eso 5 estrellas.
