Wanted: TE connectivity 90273-5 hand crimp tool

[Almut]

Hello,
I am looking for the TE connectivity hand crimp tool 90273-5 . Please let me know if you would have one available. I only need to crimp 10 pieces and try to avoid to purchase a new one for $21K

I am sorry Almut, that's a tough spot. The tool you are looking for is used for flat ribbon cable assemblies and like you said - pricey!!

Have you tried TE's online chat? You could ask them if they make an alternate tool for crimping. http://www.te.com/support-center/
Good luck!
