Electrician Ratchet Crimping Kit

The Klein Tools hand rivet nut setter kit is a ratchet crimping tool built for open-barrel terminal connectors. It covers a wire range of 23-16 AWG (0.25-1.5 mm²) and uses a chrome-moly jaw that releases automatically after each complete cycle. The red handles carry clear metric and AWG markings for quick identification.

For Electricians and DIY Wiring

This tool suits electricians and DIY enthusiasts who need consistent, low-effort crimps on small-gauge terminals in home, workshop or industrial settings. The ergonomic, non-slip grip and release lever reduce fatigue during repeated use. It is not for technicians who require crimping capacity outside the 23-16 AWG range or who need interchangeable dies for different connector styles.

23-16 AWG Crimp Range Decides Fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the 23-16 AWG (0.25-1.5 mm²) crimp range. Verify that your terminals and wire gauges fall entirely within this window before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What wire gauges does the 23-16 AWG ratchet crimper accept?

The tool crimps open-barrel terminals from 23 AWG up to 16 AWG, covering 0.25 to 1.5 mm² conductors.

How long is the Klein Tools 22417858 crimper, and what jaw clearance is needed?

Overall length is 190 mm (7.48 in); the alloy-steel jaws require enough space to fully close around the terminal barrel.

What is the correct one-cycle crimping sequence for this ratchet tool?

Strip the wire, insert it into the terminal, seat the terminal in the jaw, squeeze handles until the ratchet clicks once, then lift the release lever to open.
