Using WBT tools will optimize installation and allow the full rewards of WBT connectors to be reaped-quickly and easily. For example, when installing WBT connectors on speaker cable, use the WBT-0499 to cut and strip the cable to length. Next, slip on the appropriate crimp sleeve and use the WBT-0403 crimping pliers to complete the sleeve installation. Trim the cable/sleeve assembly to length with the WBT-0499 and install the cable into the desired connector using the WBT-0481 or WBT-0488. Simple!
