RJ45 Crimping Tool Ethernet Crimp Tool Crimper for RJ11/RJ12 Standard, RJ45 Pass Through Connectors, Yellow

I bought these to see if they did as well as name-brand crimpers I used to have. They are about 95% as nice as my name brand crimpers, for less than half of the price. I have no desire to replace this crimper with the name brand, to be honest.While I haven't found a 'perfect' crimper yet, these work very well. I have had ZERO failed crimps with this tool--The depth of the crimp is appropriate. It doesn't seem to over crimp, nor under crimp. The blade cuts reliably. I will say that stripping with these isn't great--They cut a little deeper than I like, just like the name-brand crimpers did. My favorite stripper tool is still the little one-piece plastic thingy that comes for free with all kinds of stuff.I have used this crimper with both 'name brand' RJ45 plugs from the big box store as well as 'no name' plugs from Amazon. I can't tell the difference.All in all, if you're on the fence as to these vs name-brand, pick these up. They're probably off of the same production line, anyway.

As a tech enthusiast diving into network setups, the RJ45 Crimping Tool for RJ11/RJ12 and RJ45 Pass Through Connectors has been a fantastic addition to my toolkit, earning a strong 4.5 stars. This yellow crimper feels sturdy and well-built, with a comfortable grip that makes repetitive tasks a breeze. It handles RJ45 pass-through connectors and RJ11/RJ12 standards flawlessly, delivering clean, reliable crimps every time. The built-in cutter and stripper are precise, saving me from juggling extra tools, and the compact design is perfect for tossing in a bag for on-site jobs.My only gripe is the lock mechanism—it tends to engage unexpectedly mid-use, which is a bit annoying and slows down the workflow. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it disrupts the otherwise seamless experience. Aside from that, this crimper is a high-quality, versatile tool that’s ideal for DIYers or pros setting up Ethernet or phone lines. For the price, it’s a great value, and I’d recommend it to anyone needing a reliable crimping tool, lock quirk notwithstanding!

It takes some practice putting the jack on the crumpet with the wired fitting through the opening.

Great Product A++++++++++

Does exactly what you need it to do. And they let you bring it on a plane.

Meh. They kinda do the job, just not really well. They will get it done, but it aint as easy as the name brand.

Fantastic for the price point.

Worked perfectly! Crimped and cut pass through without an issue!
