- The tool which Astoria also sells is similar to the one AZ sells. The AZ tool looks beefier.
- It may be possible to crimp it without the tool but not effectively IMO.
- I'm in Michigan. The tool is only $15 in AZ
- If u r referring to the plastic zip ties, I would not do it.
- The hose clamp may work as long as it does not loosen up.
