Crimps. High tension crimps.

I have 2 3 crimps they work on my high tension wire that measures an even 0.100”

My Kencove High tension fixed knot fencing measures 0.097” (EDIT it was 0.97" I don't think I can work with wire that thick)

That’’s a lousy 0.003” difference, yet I can feel it and I can see it, one is thicker.


Now the question:

Can I use the same crimps? Maybe an extra one or two?

Yes, Yes I can tie termination knots. I’d rather crimp.

Don't you really mean your fence wire is 0.097......0.97 is almost 1 inch....
