There's a bit of confusion evident in the replies so far:



The "expensive one" that you rent for $10 a month or buy for $300 is NOT 

to crimp D-sub pins, standard or high density. It is to crimp Molex 

MX-150 pins which are used on the Vertical Power units. All of the post 

previously apply to D-subs. The crimper from Vertical power is totally 

different and as far as I can figure out it is the only one you can use. 

I've priced them elsewhere and found that $300 from Vertical Power is a 

bargain. You're going to need at least two crimpers, one for the VP-X 

power plugs and one for D-subs.



Hope this answers you original question.

 Which they describe as good for regular and high density pins.

 So, my basic questions are:

 1. what is the difference between standard machined sub-D pins and 

 high density pins?

 2. Am I okay with the RCT-3 crimper or should I rent or buy an 

 expensive one?
