Abstract
A ratchet crimp tool has upper and lower handles joined by a ratchet member. An upper jaw is fixed to the upper handle. A lower jaw is pivotally connected to both handles. The jaws have attachment elements disposed in facing relation. Upper and lower crimp nests are slidably mounted on the attachment elements. The crimp nests have arms which define a channel, which in turn meshes with the associated attachment element in interlocking engagement. Ball detents are mounted in holes in the jaws. The detents engage the crimp nests to retain them on the jaws. An interlocking pin and slot arrangement is provided to insure proper orientation of the nests on the jaws
