Used to have access to a 30 tons(I think it was) hydraulic wire crimper and cutter to put terminals on my battery wires and stuff like that. I ave no access to that but I have to crimp like 10 or 12 #6 ring terminals and since I want to give it a good crimp, I looked for something similar but more on the residential style. There are several at Amazon and even Ebay going for 50 or 60 bucks for up to 16 tons, not bad but the 2 main things are. The higher the pressure, the less of the smaller AWG crimp dies you get. Most of the ones I saw, the dies comes into some metric(?) standard which makes it harder to make sure you are using the right die for the wire size.
Harbor Freight has one, so I went there to pick it up since it has a good range of dies for different AWGs. When I got home I notice it is just 8 tons. Have any of you guys used this crimper? I assume 8 tons should be enough for most small crimping jobs that I may tackle once in a blue moon, but would like to hear your opinion.

Pex Pipe Crimper Tool
If you need to borrow one let me know. I just ran all new battery cables in my boat. To crimp the lugs on the 2 and 4 gauge I used a 5 pound hammer and a block of wood. I put the lug on the ground, wood on top and we'll gave it a few good hits. I know this is not the right way of doing it but it seems to be holding. What do you all think?
Harbor Freight Hydraulic Crimping Tool
Hunter: that is a way, and I've done it like that too!!! The wires I need to crimp the terminals now are already installed and secured in the boat, so to do that I would have to cut all the tie wraps, undo all the install, measure 100 times before cutting and then crimping outside the boat. With this tool I can cut in place and put the terminals right inside the console. Just a suggestion on your method.I would not do it over a block of wood. Actually the other way around, instead of a soft surface like wood, I would use something hard. When I had to do it.

I did it on top of an anvil. I just ran all new battery cables in my boat. To crimp the lugs on the 2 and 4 gauge I used a 5 pound hammer and a block of wood.

Not a good idea. Properly crimped terminals are actually swaged by the tool.

The act of swaging reduces the diameter and volume of the terminal cavity to mechanically hold the wire. Banging on it with a hammer just bends the terminal walls from a cylindrical shape to a more ovoid shape but it doesn't reduce the volume within the terminal by much, if any. I wouldn't trust your makeshift crimp. Hunter: that is a way, and I've done it like that too!!!
