Know More About Triplett Hand Tools

What Are Networking Hand Tools?

Networking hand tools are simple yet important tools used widely in data and voice networks. These tools are used by network technicians, system administrators, and so on for installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of such networks, components, wires, connected devices. These tools range from simple work lights to pliers, cutters, crimpers, and so on. We offer various types of hand tools from which it is important to use the right ones depending on your requirement.

Types of Networking Hand Tools We Offer

Our hand tools are easy to use, low on maintenance, and are always used regardless of digitalization and automation. Most of our hand tools have multiple functionalities. Here are some types of hand tools we offer for networking and electrical installations.

  • Cable testers: This is a probe that checks if the cable is working. It identifies faults related to functionality of network cables, seamless power supply, wiring connection issues, and so on. Aside from testing probes, we offer a telescoping mirror that helps a close visual inspection of loose connections, leaks, and so on.
  • Crimpers: Wire crimpers compress the exposed conductive portions of the wire, which ensures a secure connection. It ensures the connectors are fixed on to the network cable ends. We offer a multifunctional tool that crimps, strips, and cuts wires accurately. It is designed for Cat5, Cat6, and Cat7 Ethernet cables and RJ11/12 modular plugs.
  • Punch down tools: This tool is used to terminate network cables onto patch panels or terminal blocks. The inside wires are punched down into the appropriate slots or connectors. Our punch down tools have blades that can easily cut CAT 3/5/5E/6 cables.
  • Cable strippers: This tool combines the functions of a crimper and a wire stripper. It facilitates both termination of connectors and stripping of insulated cable portions in a single tool. Wire strippers remove the outer insulation from network cables, exposing the conductive wires inside.
  • Copper cable cutters: We offer specially designed cutters to precisely cut copper wires. You can actually take a whole cable with the conductive portion exposed and cut the whole bunch of wires inside in one go.
  • ScrewdriversThere are various tip types and sizes of screwdrivers we offer.Any professional must have these in their kit. They are used to open or close screws and nuts connected to various network equipment such as routers, switches and enclosures. Using the right screw driver facilitates safe opening and tight sealing of the screws to the equipment. This tool must also be there in home kits. For instance, our auto loading screwdriver has an 18-tooth ratchet driver with forward, reverse and lock, and perfectly suited for DIYers and professionals.
  • Multifunctional pliers: We offer various types of pliers based on their shape and functionality, such as fish shaped, crimping plier, tongue and groove water pump pliers, long needle nose pliers, and so on. They have their unique features such as the long needle nose plier is long and slender and designed for hard-to-reach areas.

Specialized Networking Hand Tools

Aside from these widely used tools there are some specialized tools used in the networking segment, especially for testing purposes. Here are some of them.

  • Tone generator and probes: It is used to trace and identify cables within a network infrastructure. The tone generator emits a signal, and the probe is used to detect and follow the signal along the cable.
  • Wire mappers: This tool tests if the cable is connected to the right pin by transmitting signals through each wire in a cable.
  • Cable certifiers: This is a cable testing tool used to verify the electrical connections in a cable and wiring between the two ends as well.
  • Cable labeler: A cable labeler is a tool that facilitates labeling and identification of cables by placing an adhesive based cable label. This is an important part of cable organization and management. This machine can be used for all types of cables.

Tips for Choosing the Right Networking Hand Tools

It is important for any network engineer, professional electrician, and so on to have all of these tools in their kit. Some of these tools are a must-have even in a home kit. Here are some tips on choosing the correct hand tools.

  • The tools must be handy, lightweight, and portable so that you can carry them easily.
  • Ensure you have the right case for each tool aside from an entire kit. This is because you may not always need the whole kit.
  • Screwdrivers are absolutely essential. However, it is important to the right tip type of a screwdriver. Keep a separate kit with screwdrivers of all tip types and sizes.
  • Ensure your cutting tools are sharp enough so that they do not damage or nibble the wires.
  • You can categorize these tools into cutting, testing, fixing and removing, crimping, and so on based on their functionality. You can arrange at least one or tools in each category to form your own kit.
  • Ensure you have a separate cooper cable cutter aside from other types.
  • Opt for multifunctional tools which ease your job, such as a single tool for cutting and crimping.
