Thinking Angler Compact Crimper

Thinking Angler Compact Crimper

There’s no doubt that crimping forms extremely neat, strong, and reliable connections – with the benefit of being able to duplicate hook link length and loop sizes with absolute precision every time.

This makes crimping ideal for constructing a range of specialist rigs, including Chod and Hinged hook sections, booms, and loops.

We have rigorously tested and can wholly recommend using the following TA products with the TA Compact Crimp Tool and our 0.60mm crimps – ‘Recoil’ stiff link material in 25lb and 30lb, ‘Think Link’ (low-memory mono) in both 25lb and 30lb, ‘Tint Link’ 25lb, or the new ‘Crimp Link’ Fluorocarbon hook links.

When compressing crimps down always make sure that the crimp is seated squarely in the recess, and you feel the crimp crunch down securely.

Always check that the crimp has compressed fully and no flat spots have been formed upon compression.
