### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by Z***E on 11 June 2016*

j'avais l'habitude d'utiliser une Plato SN-02B qui sertissait du molex proprement, en une seule passe (mors d'isolant et de conducteur). Mais le sertissage des broches Dupont nécessitait un doigté et un réglage de profondeur très délicat et minutieux, sous peine d'écraser l'intégralité du connecteur Avec cette pince, de bien meilleure qualité que ma SN-02B Chinoise, il faut effectuer deux sertissage distincts, l'un pour le conducteur, l'autre pour l'isolant. Mais la lame est assez étroite pour ne pas risquer d'abimer le fût du connecteur Dupont femelle (idem pour les VH et NH). Et accessoirement, la pince donne d'excellents résultats sur les petits modèles de cosses faston. La ferule du connecteur s'enroule proprement, comme elle le ferait avec une véritable pince Molex (laquelle coûte 4 à 6 fois plus cher). Mors en acier forgé et non estampés en série, poignée en élastomère, agréable à la main (les photos sur le Web laissent penser à un plastique de mauvaise qualité, ce n'est absolument pas le cas) ressort de rappel (en compression) un peu mou qui demande à être "étiré" avant la première utilisation. Si cette pince est utilisée avec soin pour ne sertir QUE des connecteurs électroniques genre molex ou dupont, sa durée de vie sera... largement supérieure à celle de son utilisateur.
