FAQ Schema
Q: What's the difference between hand crimpers and hydraulic crimpers?
A: Hand crimpers are portable and suitable for smaller terminals (up to 6mm wire rope), requiring manual force. Hydraulic crimpers provide consistent, high-pressure crimping for larger terminals and professional applications, ensuring optimal strength retention (90-95% vs 70-80% for hand crimpers).
Q: How do I choose the right wire rope cutter?
A: Choose cutters based on maximum wire rope diameter and construction. For 7x19 flexible ropes up to 8mm, quality cable cutters work well. For larger or stiffer constructions, dedicated wire rope cutters with compound leverage are necessary. Always ensure clean cuts to prevent fraying.
Q: Do I need special tools for stainless steel wire rope?
A: Stainless steel is harder than galvanized steel, requiring sharper, more robust cutting tools. Use cutters specifically rated for stainless steel to ensure clean cuts and tool longevity. Crimping tools work the same, but may require slightly higher pressure for optimal results.
