Large Crimp Tool
Sometimes you just need another tool to make the best possible connection. During routine maintenance on my F-250 I noticed the battery negative lead was highly corroded. After a little search I found an OEM style replacement from DEL CITY. Having a crimped connection instead of the generic bolted replacements gives me comfort that this will last for another 20 years without fail.
Enter the new tool!
Preparation
Order of operations is identical to a standard small crimp.
Strip off coating to proper length
Ensure clean (old wires can become corroded on interior)
Flux and a bit of heat makes quick work cleaning the copper
Crimp
In this case I zip tied the pair of conductors together for better alignment
These terminals required some muscle to finish!
