Canare TC-1 standard hand crimp tool is designed to be used with Canare die sets for precision crimping of BNC and other connectors.

Being a precision tool, it’s definitely not a one-size-fits-all approach to BNC and RCA crimping.

Check each genuine Canare connector on our website, and we’ll list the correct die set to choose. Do it right, do it once.

TC-1 is made from hardened Swedish steel and includes scissor ratcheting action for easy crimping, along with an ’emergency release’ lever.

Note for the southpaws:

TC-1 is a ambidextrous – but only if you ask it nicely. If you’re using TC-1 after a right-handed tech, you’ll need to flip the die set upside-down (ensuring the die holes align), and you will be ready to crimp. Whether or not you return it to the ‘right handed’ state after you finish crimping, kind of depends on your own workflow – and possibly how you approach leaving the ‘seat up’ or ‘seat down’ philosophy in your workplace.
