I’ve worked in the connector industry for nigh on 30 years now, crimping is low cost and perfectly suited to automotive applications, but you gotta have the right tools or the crimp integrity will be compromised either through poor conductivity, long term corrosion or poor pull off forces.

Super seal connectors can be crimped using pliers/cutters if you know what your doing but not recommended. Pukka tools are not cheap, normally ratchet type as the repeatability is built in.

Happy to discuss further If needed, drop me a pm

Ps nasher - out of idle curiosity who do you work for? You might be a customer of mine - I work for Smiths Interconnect
