Muzata Upgraded Hydraulic Crimping Tool Cable Crimper with Wire Cutter CT01

This worked perfectly to crimp the Miata fittings onto the 1/8” stainless steel cable. Kind of expensive but a good investment to complete the job.

Cutter sucks,broke after 10 difficult cuts

Ordered this to build my own cable railing. I made over 300 crimps. The thumb screw was wearing out my fingers and thumb so I had to use pliers. Purchase or create (I made my own.) a stabilizer base to help with the crimping process. This will reduce fatigue during use. I noticed that the closed position on the thumb screw slowly moved over time. Also, the cutter is not meant to cut stainless or galvanized cable. The cutter failed after about a dozen cuts. I would still purchase again.

Deliver was quick. This product worked very well for installing my deck cable rail system. I particularly like the in-line design of the press - other tools have an offset press design and I was wary of breakage with those. The hardware seems to be high quality and provides great power for crimping.

This is perfect for it's purpose. Crimping muzata wire fastners. It works well.

The one thing that would make this item user friendly would to have it mounted on a flat platform so that it doesn’t have a tendency to roll around. After the first couple of uses I mounted it on a flat board, this really made a big difference in the stability and convenience. Other than that a great tool especially for the price.

It broke within a week. Ordered another and it came with a piece missing from it. Waiting to get resolution from the company.

I love the case and the crimper, but the cutter they include is in no way suitable for 3/16” stainless cable. You will almost break your hands trying to get them to cut. I’ve only attempted 1 cut and I can’t imagine with a little use and dulling of the blades how utterly worthless these will be. Having purchased thousands of dollars in products from this company for our new deck, this, so far, has been my only complaint. Larger jaws and larger handles for more leverage would likely solve this. Now I’m going to have to spend more money to get some that will work. Ugh. Crimper is 5 stars, cutter zero stars. Update to 4 stars, 3/16” die is rounded out after 40% of my job has been done. Great customer service they sent me a replacement die so I’m back to work. I’d like them to stock 3/16” dies for purchase. 5 star customer service. I purchased a second as a backup for my project. Had to order oil from the UK. Love that the units come with gaskets to rebuild them.
