Worked perfectly the first time, the yellow IDC socket holder doesn't fit tightly, used scotch tape to prevent losing it.

Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2018

While assembling a 3D printer kit, the 8 cable ribbon cable provided was too short to reach from my control board to the touch screen display. After trying several compression tools which were not designed for ribbon cable, this seemed like a low cost alternative. My connectors are Dual Rows IDC Socket for Flat Ribbon Cable, 8P FC. Crimped two of these to an 8 ribbon wire (scaled down from 10 ribbon wire, tore off 2 wires of one side).

First two crimps and this worked perfectly. Had 1 ohm or less resistance and continuity between all pins on the first attempt. Used breadboard male to male in each socket over the sequence of 8 to verify continuity so some resistance may be due to the ad hock measurement technique. Without this tool it wasn't possible to get even a single connector to connect properly. Connection was easy, and it is a wonderful tool for the job. Never knew these existed, but now it is possible for me to make an arbitrary length ribbon connected cable compressed into an IDC socket.

The only down side is this smells a bit of machine oil, not too bad, but it may smell slightly of oil. Also the yellow crimp socket holder has 2 sides, each side is for a different thickness IDC connector. Others suggested on reviews here using scotch tape to hold the yellow socket holder in, this is very good advice. The scotch tape is mostly useful to preventing the yellow socket holder from getting lost in a tool box. It would be nice if the maker could publish a .STL file so we could reproduce the socket holder via a 3d printer if it's ever lost. This tool is a very good value if you need to connect IDC sockets via ribbon cable.

Good deal for low volume cable making

Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2021

It works as intended. Not super high quality, but, very inexpensive. It’s easy to miss getting the connector fully into the grove on the plastic side, which results in a broken connector. If you’re careful though, and watch some YouTube videos to make up for the lack of instructions, this tool will work just fine. No regrets. (Though, if I had a hundred cables to make, I’d probably spring for a more expensive tool.)

Almost but not quite useful

Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2020

This is a pretty simple device, but it falls short. The opening distance of the camping surfaces is just not quite wide enough to easily insert an assemled IDC. It would probably be OK if you were to clamp just the cable and then re-clamp with the strain relief, but that's two operations that should be just one. Unfortunately, it looks like all the tools like this are the same design, so I'll be looking for a different solution.

The connectors I'm replacing were badly done, probably with pliers. These let you do it right every time.

Very good quality construction

You can use this for the large or small profile IDC connectors. This is an excellent universal crimper for few to many pin contact position style connectors. Seems built to last a lifetime for what is intended for, especially if you're just a hobbyist.

Seemed more complex but it super easy to use. Just the strength requires some experience. Seems to deliver what’s promised. Recommended.

I've only used it 4 times, but it seems to work nice. I wish the jaws opened up a little more maybe another 5mm would be perfect. But they did the job so not really an issue. I just think if the jaws opened a little more it would be easier to put the DB I'm trying to crimp in place.
