Contact Removal Tools
A contact removal tool is a hand tool used to extract crimp contacts locked into a connector housing without damaging its cavity. In panel and machine wiring, it makes it possible to remove contacts that were inserted into the wrong cavity, are damaged or need their cable replaced without replacing the whole connector. This category includes TP Elektrik tools, separate ones for 10 A crimp contacts and 16 A crimp contacts. Choose the tool according to the connector's brand and series, the contact's current rating and the contact type. Because 10 A and 16 A contacts have different dimensions, each tool is used only on the contact it is compatible with. A removal tool does not replace the crimping pliers that attach the contact to the cable; for the crimping process you need crimping pliers suited to the same contact series.
