Have purchased ratchet crimpers and yellow crimps and have been practising like a mutha.
cable is 6 mm. Using red crims for connecting earth wires.
Question: the crimps are very solid under strain from pulling but give with a click ever so slightly when pushed together. When I say slightly i mean by a gnat's crotchet. Is this a big deal?
Also Tyco's PDF on crimping describes a bend test performed on crimped but unstripped wire. This works fine with the red crimps but not even close on the yellows. What gives? As I said test the practice pieces are shaping up nicely
