## Questions & Answers

**Q: the description says they are the journeyman series, big I got the crimps with the regular red dipped handles. was that a mistake?**
A: The journeyman ones don't have the plastidipped coating on the handles.  There should be a dual composition red and black handle and I think they say journeyman really big.  The advantage being after squeezing really hard, your hands don't hurt.  If you're doing a big wiring job and crimping all day, it makes a difference.  That situation using my old channellocks, towards the end of the day I was wrapping the handles with a rag because I couldn't squeeze hard enough to make good strong crimps.  Another advantage over the channellocks is the slot without the tit for insulated is closer to the pivot giving more leverage therefore not having to squeeze as hard.  They're well worth the extra couple of bucks.  If yours don't have the big handles as shown in the picture, then they sent you the wrong ones.

**Q: Is this still made in the USA?**
A: I believe it is, they do have manufacturing outside the U.S., but most of the products made outside the U.S. are consumed in other parts of the world. They have several plants in the U.S. with plans for expansion here.

**Q: How do you know which notch to use for a certain gauge? for instance, i need to crimp 12 awg and 18 awg.**
A: 18 awg is a lot smaller than 12 awg so look at the notches closely and you will know
