3.2 Function
The crimping pliers for Western plugs can be used to cut and strip flat cables
and crimp Western plugs.
CAT cables (network cables) can be stripped and crimped.
The forced locking mechanism, which can be unlocked as required, ensures
that the pliers only open when the required crimping pressure is reached.
