Breakaway Adjustable Crimp Tool
Corrosion-Resistant Tool for Controlled, Lateral Crimping
The Breakaway Adjustable Crimp Tool is a uniquely designed tool specifically created for use with the new Breakaway soft adjustable crimps. This ingenious tool addresses the long-standing issue of traditional crimping tools that weaken traces by creating serrated cuts across the crimp, which often damages the trace body.
This new tool solves that problem by crimping lengthways in a neat, controlled way (lateral crimp). This action allows the adjustable crimp to be either virtually locked in place or crimped to a lesser degree so the crimp can still be moved to suit the trace design.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Designed for Adjustable Crimps: Must only be used with the new soft adjustable crimps for optimum results and reliability.
- Lateral Crimping Action: Crimp the crimp lengthways, avoiding the damaging serrated cuts of traditional tools. This ensures the crimp is securely held without weakening the trace body.
- Adjustable Security: Allows for a controlled crimp:
- Fully Locked: Crimp tightly to secure components permanently.
- Adjustable: Crimp lightly so the component can still be moved to suit the trace design (e.g., adjusting snood length).
- Corrosion-Resistant Body: The body is made from heavy-duty plastic to prevent corrosion, making it safe to store in your tackle box without deterioration.
- Durable Blade: The metal blade that produces the lateral crimp is specially hardened to give maximum durability and consistent performance.
- Complete Kit: The tool comes complete with 20 crimps and rubber inserts so you can start rigging immediately.
