Versatile RJ45 Crimping Tool

The Klein Tools crimper strips, cuts and crimps pass-through and standard RJ45, RJ12 and RJ11 connectors for CAT6 and CAT5e cables. It is built for electricians and network installers who need one tool for multiple connector types. The yellow finish identifies the model in a busy tool bag.

Installation and Common Issues

The all-in-one design lets you strip, cut and crimp without changing tools, and the ergonomic handle reduces fatigue during long runs. A mini stripter is included to help avoid the known blade-height sensitivity that can nick cable cores if not set carefully. Users should rotate the cable 360 degrees in the stripping port for a clean jacket removal.

Connector Compatibility Limit

This tool does not work with RJ45 connectors that have a 1.2 mm hole diameter, so verify the connector specification before purchasing. It supports standard 8P8C, 6P6C and 6P4C configurations on Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 cable. Buyers needing to crimp large-gauge power connectors or fibre-optic terminations will need a different tool.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the tool is crimping pass-through RJ45 connectors correctly after setup?

Check that the 8P8C contacts are fully seated and flush with the connector face, then test continuity on all eight pins with a cable tester.

What comes in the kit and which items must be purchased separately?

The kit includes the crimper, a mini stripper and blue cover boots; RJ45, RJ12 and RJ11 connectors are sold separately.

Which connector versions does this crimper support for Cat6 and Cat5e cables?

It handles standard RJ45, RJ12 and RJ11 connectors plus pass-through RJ45 types for 8P8C, 6P6C and 6P4C wiring; avoid 1.2 mm hole-diameter RJ45s.
