Momoi Diamond 100, what crimper and sleeve?

[junior26]

For all those that are crimping on momoi diamond 100# test, which crimper and sleeve combination is providing the best results?

Thanks for the help!

if i can remember correctly from the list thats on the boat, what works best for us is the second biggest hole on a billfisher crimper and jenki LI.

Momoi "L" ..1.3mm..crimp for 100# test..I don't know what "hole" on Jinkai's ..I mean Momoi's crimpers that is.

It's amazing too me that these line companies don't require the tackle distributors and retailers to sell their cimps and tools if they sell the line..sure would take the guess work out of crimping. Line diameters vary greatly by manufacturer, trying to mix and match crimps and crimpers too me is cause for second guessing, which I can't stand.

We only use Jinkai for basic riggin..they make the line, crimps, hand tools and bench crimpers..in other words they tell you the line diameter of their line and the corresponding crimp size and "letter" the tools come with the hole diameter and the corresponding crimp "letter" simplified easy and no guessing. I know they don't produce the tools..but they do publish what goes with which and why..in all of their materials..plus I like the line and have used if for years with great success, plus it makes a great knot.

I use a 1.2mm small oval heavy wall aluminum sleeve and the med hole on my hand crimpers...Mark

1.0 double copper sleeve, Jinkai SC-3 crimpers. first hole, crimp the sleeve in the center so that it flares both ends of the sleeve. Never had a problem with slipage.
