So I was crimping a insulated fork connector to a 18 gauge wire using a good set of ratcheting crimpers. I just could not get a good crimp even though the fork terminals were listed for 18 gauge wire. Maybe the wire was on the low end of the spec & the terminals were on the big end. The moral of the story is always look at the finish crimp. If you can pull the wire out or see it moving in the crimp something is wrong.
