Abstract: A tool is provided for preparing a cable for crimping. The tool includes a first pressure arm and a second pressure arm. An intermediate member is disposed between the first pressure arm and the second pressure arm, the intermediate member being rotationally coupled to the first pressure arm by a first pivot and rotationally coupled to the second pressure arm by a second pivot. The intermediate member includes a first pair of slots adjacent the first pressure arm and a second pair of slots adjacent the second pressure arm. A first pair of stripping cartridges is removably coupled to the first pair of slots. A second pair of stripping cartridges removably coupled to the second pair of slots.

Abstract: A tool for coupling a connector to a wire is provided. The tool includes a first handle coupled to move a connecting head from a first position to a second position. A second handle is operably coupled to the first handle. A die block is rotationally coupled to the second handle and has a first connecting section and a second connecting section. A pair of support arms is pivotally coupled to the die block adjacent the first connecting section. The pair of support arms each having a body with an opening. The openings cooperate to define a circular opening when in the closed position. The circular opening is sized to provide 360 degrees of support to an end of the connector when the connecting head is in the second position. A biasing member is coupled to the pair of support arms to bias the support arms towards the closed position.
