Proskit Crimping Tool Modular CP-373 - Description
The Proskit Modular Crimping Tool CP-373 (MS-25556) is a versatile, all-in-one networking hand tool engineered for technicians, network installers, and DIY enthusiasts. Combining cutting, stripping, and crimping into a single compact device, it eliminates the need to carry multiple tools when building or repairing Ethernet and telecommunication cables.
Key Features
- 3-in-1 Versatility: Integrates dedicated cable cutting, wire stripping, and precision connector crimping in one durable frame.
- Broad Connector Compatibility: Supports 8P8C/RJ45 network connectors, 6P2C/6P4C/6P6C RJ11/RJ12 telephone plugs, and 4P2C/4P4C RJ-22 handset plugs (located conveniently on the back side of the tool).
- Dual-Action Stripping: Features specialized stripping sections for both flat modular cables (with stop guide) and round UTP/STP network cables.
- Clean, Straight Cutting: Single-bladed cable cutter produces clean, perpendicular cuts to ensure proper wire alignment prior to termination.
- Ergonomic & Reliable: Designed for smooth leverage and consistent crimp pressure to deliver solid, secure pin contacts every time.
Step-by-Step Practical Operation
Whether preparing standard Cat5e/Cat6 patch leads or telephone extensions, the tool makes cable assembly straightforward:
- Cutting: Cut modular cables to length with clean 90-degree straight cuts using the integrated single blade.
- Stripping: Insert flat modular cables up to the stop guide or rotate the tool around round networking jackets for an easy outer-jacket strip without nicking inner conductors.
- Crimping: Seat your prepared wires into the modular plug, align with the gold contacts, and squeeze firmly until fully seated.
