This category includes tools that are essential for working with coaxial cables. Sheath separating tools, cable stripping blanks, crimping pliers for different cable sizes as well as side cutting pliers. If you can't find the tool you need for your coax cable, for example, or if it is not yet uploaded to our webshop, please contact us, as there is a good chance we will be able to recommend the right tool for your particular cable or wire.

Use of Crimping and Blanking Pliers

Remember that when using these two tools, order matters. First, the use of the blanching pliers is the most expedient. This is to carry out what is known as blanching, which involves stripping the cable to the required length. The idea is to remove the plastic insulating sheathing that surrounds the thicker, solid wire that runs inside the cable and carries the current, so that the cable can be connected to a device or socket.

We do all this to ensure that the power, data and signal can get to where it is needed. Once the blanching is done, the next step is to apply the crimping pliers, or crimping. It involves securing the connector to the end of the cable with an unbreakable bond, for which a crimping tool is essential to achieve the desired force.

How to choose a Crimping and Blanking Plier?

The choice of crimping and blanching pliers should be adapted to the type of connector, which is closely linked to the type of cable to be processed. If this approach is taken when selecting the crimping or blanching tool, it can be useful for an efficient workflow later on. A lot depends on the precision of the crimping or stripping process. Without this, the network cannot operate at the desired data rate. In the worst case, the data transfer may not work at all if the connector is loose in an undesirable way.

What materials can Crimping and Blanking Pliers be used for?

Before buying this type of crimping pliers, you should first consider what kind of cable and connector you want to connect to it. It is important to consider not only the type of connection and cable, but also the different sizes. Usually we use cables with a diameter of 0.5 to 6 mm, so if you don't want to buy different crimping pliers, you should choose a tool for this size in the first place.

Once you have decided this, it is worth looking at what the connector itself is made of and you may want to change your decision accordingly. Because there are some connectors for which you will need compression crimping pliers, and with this type of pliers you can apply more force.

What sizes and types of Crimping and Blanking Pliers does the DND Telecom webshop offer?

There are several types of crimping pliers available in different sizes, shapes and features in the DND Telecom webshop. But let's get into the details. We distinguish between standing and sitting crimping pliers. The first version offers a larger crimping surface and is recommended for crimping thicker cables. The second version is easier and more comfortable to use, but can be used with a smaller crimping surface. There are also special crimping pliers, such as the modular or compression versions. Modular versions, for example, make it very easy to crimp Ethernet cables.

How to choose the right Crimping and Blanking Plier?

In order to choose the crimping tool that will actually fit the cable and connector you have chosen, you need to know what connector you will be mating with the cable. Because you can choose a crimping tool that is designed to connect a coax cable to a coax connector. But for F-connectors, BNC, RCA sockets and RG59 and RG6 cables, we need compression crimping pliers. If you're using RJ-45 and RJ-12, RJ-11 or also known as 6p/8p connectors, then modular crimping pliers are what you'll need to use.

What is the difference between Crimping and Blanking Pliers?

As mentioned above, blanching pliers serve a completely different role and are just similar to crimping pliers. Functionally, the two tools are fundamentally different. The difference lies in the fact that crimping pliers can be used to create a connection between two different parts. In contrast, the blanching pliers are used to effectively strip the cable.


In the DND Telecom webshop you can also get the necessary cables and connectors in addition to crimping and blanching pliers! All the tools you need for a sufficiently efficient data transmission can be obtained from a single place, the DND Telecom webshop, in impeccable quality, saving you a lot of valuable time and energy.
