Description
Three-in-One Modular Plug Crimper
The OB-318 Crimping Tool crimps, cuts and strips 8P, 6P and 4P modular plugs in one hand tool. Hardened carbon steel jaws hold alignment across repeated termination cycles. Rubberised grips reduce hand fatigue on long cable runs.
The 200 mm body reaches into loaded patch panels and shallow back boxes. Jaws form 8P RJ45, 6P RJ12 and 4P RJ11 plugs, and the cutting blade trims Cat5e and Cat6 cable to length. A built-in stripper scores the outer sheath without nicking the copper cores.
Carbon steel forgings carry an electrophoresis coating that resists rust in humid cabinets. Overall weight lands at 285 g. The German-style frame opens to a fixed jaw gap, so crimp depth stays repeatable between operators and shifts.
