Compression tool for coaxial cable

The Platinum Tools 16213C is a SealSmart PROCON compression crimper built for professional installers working in CATV, CCTV, satellite, security and home-theatre projects. Its high-carbon steel frame and patented rotating connector positioner-head are engineered for long service life. The moulded handle provides comfort during repeated use, while a guide rule on the side assists with consistent cable preparation.

Installers needing multi-connector versatility

This tool suits technicians who must switch quickly between RG6Q, RG6, RG11 and RG7 cable sizes as well as F, BNC and RCA connector types using the multi-head adapter. The adjustable crimp stroke accommodates all standard compression connectors including right-angle variants. It is not intended for buyers who require a crimper for non-coaxial cable types or for those who need a tool without a rotating head mechanism.

Rotating head with multi-size cable support

The defining specification is the head that rotates to switch between RG6Q/6 and RG11/7 cable sizes while the connector positioner rotates to change between F, BNC or RCA interfaces. This dual-rotation system combined with the adjustable crimp stroke determines whether the tool matches the range of coaxial cables and connectors used on a given job.

Questions about this item

How do I switch the crimper head between RG6 and RG11 cables?

Rotate the patented connector positioner-head to the marked position for RG6Q/6 or RG11/7, then lock it before crimping.

Which parts wear out and need replacement on this tool?

The adjustable crimp stroke mechanism and rotating head pivots may need lubrication or eventual replacement after heavy professional use.

What stops me from over-crimping connectors during long jobs?

The adjustable crimp stroke sets a fixed compression depth, and the guide rule on the side helps verify connector seating each time.
