BFKK Ferrule Crimping Tool 16-6 AWG 28-5 (.08-16mm²) Self-Adjustable Ratchet
Hexagonal crimping pliers cover 16 to 28 AWG and .08 to 16 mm² ferrules with a self-adjusting ratchet for consistent crimps
- Crimps ferrules from 28 to 16 AWG (.08-16mm²)
- Self-adjusting ratchet matches terminal size automatically
- Factory-calibrated for consistent crimp force
- Six serrated jaws create a tight hexagonal crimp
- Hardened steel mechanism withstands heavy use
Ferrule Crimping Range 16-6 AWG
This hexagonal ferrule crimper handles wire sizes from AWG 28 to 5, covering a cross-section of 0.08 to 16 mm². It is designed for terminating cable end-sleeves on electrical components, household equipment, pneumatic parts and other wire terminals. The six serrated crimp surfaces produce a tight, uniform hexagonal crimp. The tool arrives factory-calibrated and ready for immediate use.
Installers Needing Self-Adjusting Ratchet Action
Technicians who want a ratchet mechanism that automatically adapts to the terminal diameter will benefit from the self-adjusting design. It improves crimp accuracy and reduces the chance of wasted ferrules. The lever action lowers the force required, which helps limit operator fatigue during repetitive work. Buyers who require a non-ratcheting crimper or a tool for insulated connectors outside the stated range should look elsewhere.
Factory Calibration and Hardened Jaws
The tool is pre-set at the factory, so no initial adjustment is needed before the first crimp. High-strength special steel forms the crimping mechanism, and parts under extreme load are hardened and tempered for durability. These attributes mean consistent performance over many cycles without user maintenance. No additional accessories or software are included with the crimper.

Questions about this item
What wire gauges can the BFKK crimping tool handle for end-sleeves?
The tool crimps hexagonal ferrules from AWG 28 up to AWG 16, covering a cross-section range of 0.08 to 16 mm².
Will the self-adjusting ratchet work with the thicker 16 AWG ferrules I already have in stock?
Yes, the ratchet automatically adjusts to the ferrule diameter across the full 28–16 AWG range, so your existing 16 AWG sleeves will crimp without manual setting changes.
How can I verify the crimp is correct after using the hexagonal jaw?
A proper crimp shows six distinct serrated impressions evenly spaced around the ferrule, indicating full compression and a gas-tight connection.
