Awesome compression tool
Southwire sent me the CCM-C1 to test and I have to say I love it. I already had their KIT-C1 Cable TV Tool Kit from when I needed to reroute the coax cable from the wall jack to my mom's entertainment center and the included CCF-C1 is great but it can only compress F type compression fittings. The CCM-C1's ability to also do RCA and BNC makes it a great option for anyone that needs to make cables a lot.
I haven't had a chance to try it on RCA or BNC fittings but I did use it on F type fittings and it worked phenomenally. Switching to BNC or RCA is a simple process requiring you pull the connector chuck out, rotate it to the correct connector type, and reinsert it.

Great tool
This crimp tool is a must have for anyone that does coax or rca cables. The all in one kit is perfect. I love how i can adjust the crimp pressure. Not to mention the handle is spring loaded so it never crimps without you wanting it to. The adjustability is a great feature. It fits great in the hand and has a great over molding that wont cause the hand to fatigue as quickly. Very well made tool and a must have in the tool bag.

Built like a tank!
This tool handles pretty much any compression connector worth using, without having to carry alternate tools. The versatility is a big bonus and the quality and strength of the tool is impressive! Just picking it up gives you a feeling of confidence, because you can feel certain that it is going to last through many years of use, if you use it properly ( and even if you don't, possibly). I haven't found or seen any other tools in its class as solidly constructed.

Love this tool!
I really like this tool! I've used several coax cable connectors and I've been disappointed with most of them. I realized that this tool was different the first time I held it on my hand. It has solid construction and feels really sturdy. It fits well in the hand and won't slip out when making connections.
I like the adjustable ram and the rotating head for various connectors. The compact size is also a plus.
Overall a very solid tool.

Great adjustable feature
This is a real nice crimped. I love how it crimps more than one style coax end and there is an adjustable screw on there to fine tune between same style but different brands. since they all seem to be just a little different. It's a lot heavier than other crimpers, but hopefully that means more heavy duty as well. Pretty awesome tool.

Useful tool for VD Technicians
I found the tool to be extremely useful and well designed.The tool is ergonomically designed to make holding it easy and comfortable. The 3 way chuck makes changing cable types easy without carrying multiple connectors. I would recommend it for use.

Nice crimping tool
I have to admit I haven't had much of a chance to try this, but the couple of times I did, it did a great job of crimping on coax connectors on cable. The connections felt tight and secure, and I didn't see any transmission problems with them.

I have gone through a box of connectors trying to get this correct. How do you determine the correct length with the thumb wheel without over crimping the connector a video would help
Asked by: Golferken
The best way to achieve the right compression is by using the thumb-wheel to adjust the compression length. Once adjusted, compress your connector. If your connector is not fully compressed, adjust the tool again, then re-compress the connector. If you have any questions or would like to talk to someone, please feel free to call us at 855-798-6657.
