Questions & Answers

Would the 7/16-inch RG11 connector fit on it?

I believe this is a 7/16" that is used for F connectors, so long as the collar of the RG11 cable does not exceed this size

This is a great tool, a must have for cable installers

5/5

While I was installing TVs for my company, I became tired of jamming my hand and fingers as I pressed the F- button An adapter type for coaxial cables. We have a solution for that problem with this tool. To place the F- symbol, simply type the letters F- Excellent build quality and a solid feel to the tool.

An indispensable component where many wires all come together

4/5

There are some places that must be reached that are tight. You'll have to practice a little to really understand how it works. It's hard to make the tool turn if the wire is not perfectly straight. Using the tool to do the final tightening seems to me to be the most efficient method. The tool is used to loosen the bolt at first, and the rest is gained.

This is a very useful tool for technicians

5/5

Cable installers can count on this tool to be invaluable. Every worker who has ever had to work at a crowded tap or lockbox can attest to how frustrating it can be loosening and tightening connectors, especially in the cold when one is miserable and just wants it to end. You can save a lot of time and frustration with this tool.

I'm not sure whether it was worth it or not

3/5

This tool is useful only for terminating old coax cables and slippery connectors with its handle side, which is somewhat easier than using pliers to do. I've just started using the tool and so far I believe it is a welcome addition to my tool belt. There is no comparison to a 7/16" wrench when it comes to tightening/loosening coax. In other places a wrench can't reach, it may be useful, but the tool itself is a nuisance and pretty much only used as a last resort. As it occupies a lot of space in my tool belt, it is the least used one. This is the kind of quality one would expect from Klien, and I anticipate it to last for a long time as well, so maybe I'll get my money's worth from you want to tighten or remove coax cable, a 7/16" wrench is the best tool to use. Any diy-er could think that any of their projects will be successful There is no doubt that this tool will come in handy at some point. I gave it 3/5 because it is a durable tool that works as advertised, but it doesn't work well enough to justify its $14 price tag. It can work with a 7/16" wrench at half the price and three times as fast.

The F-word cannot be removed even after spending a lot of time attempting to Due to the tight spaces in which I need to install connectors, I decided it was time to purchase the tool specifically for the task

5/5

In addition, I purchased one for every cluster of radio stations. It would have been great if I had purchased it many.

As many other sellers claimed that this tool was discontinued, I searched for a while before settling on this one

5/5

This brand tool is far superior to another that I have and its quality is inferior too. Whenever it comes to klein tools, you can't go wrong. For my collection, I'd love to have more.
