I assume this has to be crimped on? Can you recommend a crimper for these?

Crimp embedded in heatshrink. Have used suchlike before; seems to be adequate. Make sure to thoroughly shrink the heatshrink to make it waterproof.

There is a crimper that looks the same as this only more expensive and it states that it will do: (Hobby PH 2.0, XH 2.54, KF2510, JST, Servo Connector Plug). Yes, you should be able to.

Both are crimped if connector is inserted correctly. I have had zero problems with these crimpers. The wings are curled perfectly.

I used a non-ez plug and it seemed to crimp without issues, the cable also passed testing with no issues. Ymmv though. Not sure of the brand of plug I used as I found it at the bottom of my work bag.

This is a one piece design. I not sure I would get these again. I would make a good cable and three bad ones, not sure if it was the crimper tool or me, yet I am incline to believe it is these pieces.

Yes, Sir.The Metal pins needs the crimper in order to be secured onto the cable or conductors.Now the plastic connectors incase the pins and fasten tightly, and there you have it a great connection!

Had to splice it into the old line from the battery, just used a butt splice. Crimped both ends tight and it was done.

Very carefully with needle nose pliers or a regular one. The plastic will not withstand a lot of torque.

They have a taper crimp. Which I am not sold on...I prefer the Dillon crimp die. BUT there is a significant price difference.

Hello M you can go either way I crimped mine with the crimper on my stripper just take your time with each one I have never soldered my connections. There is nothing wrong with soldering it is a good idea if you have the time and ability, however if you just take your time with crimping you will be fine I have never had a crimp come apart and I am running around 3000 true watts now. Hope this helped you M. Take care

I believe this would, but a lot depends on the quality of the connectors you use. This crimpers, like others, depends on user skill level (stripping the correct amount of insulation etc.) and the quality of the connectors used (in my humble opinion). This crimper works great and the jaws have adjustment screws. On smaller gauge wire it is trickier, but again, it's all in the skill of the operator I think. I also find tinning the wire seems to help on smaller gauge wire too.

Hi JeremyNO they have crimp on,but this is the best value on cables I have found.I have a hydraulic crimping tool. I have a boat supply store where I have been getting a lot of my solar supply,when I can't find on amazon. I am building my own solar system.are you building your system?

It appears as though the answer is ... Maybe!!I see some responses that said yes, I even saw a video that demonstrated how to set the crimp, but mine does not as was the case with another response. the number stamped on mine is LEE-308W-D3. maybe the ones that crimp are a different number or maybe Lee changed how they made their dies.

Yes, it depends on your crimper. These connectors are longer than the normal ones and your crimper has to open enough to fit the extended length. If your trying to do by hand it will not stay. The crimper has be able to handle the longer length. Had the same issue the first time.

I grab the wires with a bullnose pliers and pul them into the plug very tight, trim the wires and then pull them back in just a bit before crimping. That way there is no chance of any crosstalk. I've had no problems.
