We have bought a few recently, but be careful - there has been some manufacturing shortage (according to Multi-Contact) and all have been shipped with crimping dies for the MC-3 connector and not the MC-4s that we bought them for... Of course the dies we are told are not sold separately... YMMV -Glenn

Does it need to cost $400+? Thanks, Drake At 09:48 AM 2/15/2010, you wrote: Jay, If you already have the MC tool, then the Tyco specific tool from Tyco may be the most cost effective. We just finished a larger commercial install where we used one and it was simple and effective. IIRC it was ~$220 from our distributor.
