I have a big crimper but its not made for ring terminals. Its made for cable companys that crimp two wires together with a solid joint. I have used it for ring terminals myself. Let me know ill try to remember the name of it.

I sell the hammer type crimpers and the bolt cutter style. If you want prices on new ones pm me.

I was looking into getting crimpers for 1/0 ring terminals and WOW do they get pricey! I'd rather just hammer then down and risk damaging the cable //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif Plus I plan on soldering anyway and not risking it. Solder is always the way to go imo //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

GL on finding these, just cause I consider them pricey doesn't mean they are, but I'm on a super tight budget now nearing the end of my build so everything I see is expensive.

BTW, When you do find some, can you let me know where and for how much? or who from or whatever? If not then that's cool, but just sayin //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif.

I have a big *** table vice.

Or you can use a center punch and a hammer.

Edit: Or solder them, that's the best way.

It sure looks like it judging from the pic. I think I'm gonna pick one of these up....

 

[NewAgeKing 5,000+ posts]

Looks like it to me. I got one ordered already, thanks nG. Think the cutters they advertise will cut 1/0? I ordered a set of those too.

Works well on 4awg too... never tried on anything small b/c I've never needed to with my regular set of crimpers...
