10 awg terminal crimper

Can't seem to find one for 10 awg wire. I am rewiring my rad fans (battery to relays) and I can't seem to find a suitable crimper. The crimper I have now goes to 14 only. Anyone know where I can get one for 10 awg? Yes, I've searched Amazon, but it's not giving me exactly what I'm looking for. Anyone have direct links to one?

Will this one work for you? The standard disclaimer applies, not my listing, I am not affiliated with the seller, it's just what came up in my search for large AWG crimpers.......

If the cost is prohibitive then use those part numbers in Google search, e-bay, Amazon to find cheaper alternatives.

Vice grips work well for me on larger terminals never had one pull apart yet

Re: 10 awg terminal crimper

I just used a combination of needle nose pliers and some of the regular crimpers I have and it turned out fine. I got impatient. Thanks everyone for your input.
