Crimping tools save time

Legrand’s Starfix ferrules and cable crimping tools form part of the company’s comprehensive cable management system, designed for new installations and renovations in commercial installations, offices and domestic environments.
The unique feature of this tool is that it efficiently performs four functions, offering significant time savings. The Starfix crimping tool cuts, strips (with a side thrust), twists and automatically crimps each Starfix ferrule onto the cable.
This easy to operate tool has a fully adjustable wheel which is set to the cross section of the cable. The cable is then cut to the required length, automatically stripped and then twisted by tightening the tool and pulling the cable to remove the insulation. Ferrules, with an insulating flange, are then dispensed and crimped. The flexibility of this tool enables right and left handed users to easily perform these functions.
Starfix ferrules can accommodate wire in the single format from 0,5 mm² to 50 mm² and in double format from 2 x 0,75 mm² to 2 x 2,5 mm². The crimping system consists of five empty colour coded applicators for dispensing strips from 0,5 mm² to 6 mm².
