crimps

Crimps are small, controlled deformations or bends usually made in metal wires or cables to secure or connect components. They involve compressing a section of the wire using a specialized tool called a crimping tool, creating a tight, reliable connection without soldering. Crimping is common in electrical work for attaching connectors to wires, ensuring a strong, corrosion-resistant, and insulating joint. Properly executed crimps provide electrical conductivity and mechanical stability, essential for safety and performance in various applications like electronics, automotive, and telecommunications.
