  Are cable cutters really worth that much? Most of the time the most difficult part is stripping the insulation for these thick cables, wonder if this tool would make that a little easier

  • 

    Sinusoidal on 13/03/2023 - 08:36

    +2

    They are really designed for quite thick cables, up to 60mm diameter. If you were working a lot with thick cables I can see it being worth it.

    For thinner cables you can get away with side cutters or if you don't want to crush the cable too much then cable shears like this:

    If you're talking about the ratcheting cutter, if you are an electrician doing a lot of work with big mains cables >70mm (especially distribution board work), it would be very useful. I don't come across very large cables every day, I usually just use a battery grinder or hacksaw when I need to.

    I guess this is THE one that non-tradie people should consider to have for all sorts of in-house work/diy, is it?

      It is a much better version of an adjustable wrench (shifter). Much faster to adjust and generally only need one. Bonus is it can be used on nuts up to 52mm.

    • 

      Wildesy on 13/03/2023 - 15:47

      I have both and I think the 180s are more suitable for most people, especially DIYers. You won’t find much around the house that the 180s couldn’t do and be less cumbersome in doing so.

          @aec: I can’t click your link, but that looks like the 150mm, I’m referring to the 180mm version, I.e, 86 05 180

          Edit: checked your link, yeah that’s the correct size but I prefer them in the comfort grips which is the part number I cited above or these:

            @Wildesy: Get the 180mm. The 150mm is for tight spaces, cars etc but it's lacking leverage. I prefer these flat face pliers rather than those teeth crunchers.

          • 

            aec on 14/03/2023 - 19:48

            @Wildesy: Thanks Wildesy. I will keep an eye on this in 180mm

    The 86 06 250 is $5 cheaper than the 86 05 250, and has a higher number. From staring at both, the only difference seems to be in the shape and colour of the grips. Is there anything else to recommend either?

    • 

      OZKap on 13/03/2023 - 11:20

      86 06 is VDE electrically insulated, handle looks a bit thicker, so could be a trade off of insulation+more comfortable handle vs not being able to get in as tight spaces, especially with that flare on the VDE handles

    • 

      Huzz on 13/03/2023 - 11:45

      Good find. Although looks like shipping takes longer from UK Amazon. Also as OZKap mentioned, extra insulation might get in the way. Only $5 difference for a ~$70 tool. Rather the functionality I want. I bought the 86 05 250

      Thought these Electricians' Pliers (160 mm) were compelling also 13 01 160

  Are the "water pump" pliers a good general purpose adjustable spanner or is it much better to get a wrench plier?

  • 

    OZKap on 13/03/2023 - 11:21

    The cobra pliers have very sharp and hard teeth to grip pipes. They will definitely work on nuts, but will almost certainly leave tooth marks. They do sell plastic soft grip jaws, but last I checked they were $20+.

    If you're going to be using it on nuts and bolts would recommend the pliers wrench. Cobra are good for rusted/rounded nuts.

    • 

      isthisreallife22 on 13/03/2023 - 11:25

      Thanks.

      I also have a good socket set and a few serviceable adjustable monkey wrenches, so might get the cobra for large or awkwardly shaped jobs

      Aldi tools are hit & miss. Some are absolute garbage, some are solid and good quality. Luckily we have 60 days to find out.

      Having said that, you won't find anything in Aldi even close to the same level as Knipex.

  I picked up the ferrule crimper, https://www.amazon.com.au/97-78-180-Multi-Component-Vde-Test…
  Anybody have a recommendation for the ferrules? Never used them before and unsure about insulated vs non insulated etc.
  Can get genuine Knipex ferrules from RS components vs random selection from Amazon. Considering they're just a section of soft Al or Cu is there any point in spending more?
  Planned use for various domestic and auto projects. I already have a Klein ratchet crimper for insulated terminals but like the idea of consolidating bare wires before termination.

  • 

    hydrochlorikeet on 13/03/2023 - 21:11

    Nice one. I'd just get generic ferrules, I like insulated. They're a bit overkill for domestic, but perfect for when you are using finely stranded conductors in flexible cables(for example all appliance leads..).

  • 

    Sinusoidal on 13/03/2023 - 22:03

    I've used genuine Weidmuller, RS/Element14 generic. All are about the same tin plated copper and work just fine. In the past I liked these ones because they used to be very cheap, still pretty good value now:
