How the f**k are we supposed to know? You generally need 2-3 sizes higher but you didn't try very hard at asking the question

Damn bro. You didn't even tell us what crimpier you have. Have you even bothered to look for yourself? Or are you just posting for the sake of posting.

Since you were the only one who WASN'T a total d**k in your response I will say thanks. I wasn't inquiring about what size wire to run. I thought my question was pretty simple. Who gives  a f**k what crimper set I have. I just wanted to know what size die matches up to what size terminal to get a proper crimp? Obviously I wouldn't use a #16 die to crimp 1/0 terminals because I can see with the ***** eye it is too small.

They were asking what a crimper you have because it makes a difference whether it's AWG or metric crimper. If you have the metric, the chart I listed will tell you what size to use if you look at the very right. Although the metric ones don't seem to have a die for the 1/0 size
