Precision Crimping for Western Plugs
First and foremost, this crimping plier is specifically designed to fit Western plugs. It supports all major sizes, including RJ10 (4P4C), RJ11 (6P4C), and RJ12 (6P6C). Because of this, it’s ideal for use in telecommunication, data transmission, telephone systems, and other low-voltage network installations.
Precision-machined crimping dies ensure tight and secure connections every time. Not only does this reduce failure rates, but it also guarantees long-lasting, interference-free cable installations.
Built to Last – Burnished for Durability
Durability plays a central role in professional-grade tools, and the burnished finish of the Knipex 97 51 10 ensures that it will withstand heavy-duty use for years to come. The burnishing process protects the metal from corrosion without the need for excessive coatings, allowing the tool to retain its form and function over time.
Additionally, its forged body is made from high-grade special tool steel, hardened to extend its working life. Even with prolonged use, this crimping plier maintains its shape and performance integrity.
Ergonomic Design for Comfortable Use
The Knipex 97 51 10 features multi-component grips, making it a pleasure to use even during extended sessions. Unlike single-material grips that can fatigue the hand, these ergonomically shaped handles reduce strain, absorb shock, and provide a non-slip grip for full control.
This is especially beneficial for professionals who perform hundreds of crimps daily. When your hands stay comfortable, your work stays consistent. That’s why Knipex invests in ergonomic design just as much as mechanical performance.
Compact Yet Robust
At just 190 mm in length, the 97 51 10 model is compact enough to fit easily in tool belts, pockets, or small storage spaces. However, don’t be fooled by its size. It delivers the force and precision of a full-sized tool, making it perfect for both field and workshop environments.
Its compact dimensions also make it easy to maneuver in tight or awkward spaces—whether you’re working behind server racks, inside cable cabinets, or near wall-mounted hardware.
Simple, Reliable, and Efficient
One of the key reasons professionals choose Knipex tools is simplicity. With the 97 51 10 crimping pliers, there’s no need to fuss with adjustments or alignment. Each cavity in the crimping jaw is clearly defined, guiding the plug into position and ensuring it stays aligned during the crimping action.
The result is a repeatable and dependable crimp that complies with industry standards. Additionally, the tool’s built-in cutting and stripping functionality adds to its efficiency by allowing users to prepare cables without switching tools.
Ideal for a Range of Applications
The Knipex 97 51 10 isn’t limited to one niche. In fact, it is an incredibly versatile tool ideal for:
-
IT and network technicians performing structured cabling tasks
-
Telecom professionals installing or repairing phone lines
-
Electricians working on low-voltage data circuits
-
DIYers upgrading home networks or smart systems
-
Security system installers using RJ12 for sensor communication
Because it caters to multiple plug sizes and cable types, you don’t need to carry separate tools for different jobs. This improves portability and reduces clutter in your toolbox.
