A friend of mine gave me a set of cablematic crimpers #360.I thought I could use it on rg6 coax but it is a little to big.Does anyone have any exp. with this style crimpers?Thanks.
 
Re: crimpers

That tool does the .360" hex crimp for certain connectors manufactured for this crimp dimension. I have that die for my Greenlee Quick Cycle tool. I think it's mostly for RG59 Quad Shield, which is a rarely used cable type. I know that there are regular RG6 connectors that do have a .360 final crimp dimension. The two common hex crimps for RG6 is .324 and .360" I'm guessing you have .324 connectors and a .360 tool, which will result in a loose crimp.
