Abstract
A crimping tool (1) is used to axially fasten a cable braid (3) of a cable (2) between a crimp sleeve (4) arranged on the cable (2) and a support sleeve (5) by means of crimping. The crimping tool (1) includes a first pressing jaw (6) having a first through-opening (8), which extends in an axial direction (x), and a second pressing jaw (7) having a second through-opening (9), which is coaxial with the first through-opening (8). The first and the second pressing jaw (6, 7) are displaceable relative to each other in the axial direction. For the crimping, the first pressing jaw (6) has a support surface (10) for supporting the crimp sleeve (4) in the axial direction, and the second pressing jaw (7) has a funnel-shaped forming surface (11) arranged around the second through-opening (9), for crimping the crimp sleeve (4) with respect to the support sleeve (5).
