10-22 AWG Crimper for Non-Insulated Terminals

The Klein Tools 1006 is a hand crimping tool built for electrical wire and cable work. It handles non-insulated solderless terminals and connectors across a 10 to 22 AWG capacity. The 9 3/4 inch overall length provides leverage for consistent crimps. A hardened wire cutter in the tapered nose adds cutting function without a separate stripper.

Crimps Non-Insulated Terminals Only

This tool is designed specifically for non-insulated solderless terminals and connectors. It does not strip insulation and has no adjustable crimping force or interchangeable dies. The fixed jaw profile matches the stated AWG range, so the correct terminal size is the single specification that decides fit. Using it on insulated terminals or outside the capacity range will produce unreliable connections.

Fits Basic Electrical Toolkits

The dipped handle grip and compact length allow the crimper to sit in a standard electrician pouch or tool bag. It replaces the need for a separate side cutter when trimming wire ends during termination work. Builders who need insulated terminal crimping, wire stripping, or ratcheting force control will need additional tools. The steel construction withstands daily job-site use without adjustment.

Questions about this item

What does the 10 to 22 AWG range mean when I am crimping in the field?

It means the tool will crimp non-insulated solderless terminals and connectors on solid or stranded wire from 10 AWG down to 22 AWG.

How does the crimper connect to the terminal and what limits the connection?

The tapered nose positions the terminal and the hardened steel jaws compress it; the tool is not adjustable so the crimp force is fixed by the lever design.

What physical space and mounting does the 9 3/4 in frame need?

The overall length is 9 3/4 inches with dipped handles; it fits in a standard tool pouch or belt loop and requires no bench mounting.
