I also see this on on Amazon for $130 that looks similar to the Mastercool

These Vevor guys knock off a lot of tools. For occasional use should be fine. The hydraulic version is nice if you want to crimp hoses on the car which is often the case.

Looks like Mophor, Vevor, IBOSAD all reference their kit as the 71500 so i'm sure they're all the same just under different labels. Might have to try the Vevor Hydraulic fro $149.99

 

They are copying the Mastercool part number. Pretty blatant ripoff. Don’t know how they get away with it.

 

Mr. Tim talked about the crimper he bought in his build thread.

I bought the same one. It works like it should. It is a Mastercool clone. Search "hydraulic crimper 71500". They are about $105.00 on ebay.

I guess you can call me DHutton II. The tool influencer. Looks exactly like the one I bought.

 

Lets hear a review when you have a chance to use it some.

 

I've got a bunch of leftover fittings to practice on

 

I bought my MasterCool that was used by the guy 1 time for $300 a few years ago. Good tool.

 

That’s how i got mine too. eBay for less than half price. Like new. And it was long before the knockoff were available. At least 10 years ago.

Yep. Got mine about 10 years ago as well.
