sorted byIs it used primarily in a commercial environment, or are crimped connections/terminations something your supposed to find in homes/flats too for reg purposes.
I.e in what environment is the investment (all be it £7ish) good value?
Without this all the strands are free to move around and will deform as the clamp is tightened
Bootlace ferrules are not always the best choice though depending on the terminal, some terminals work better with fork crimps on the end.
This sort of stuff is mostly important within industrial equipment, controls panels ant the like. It's not as relevant or important at the domestic level, however as above said they are still good practice. Whenever I redo wiring in my house I remake wire end terminations with them. But, that's only cos I already had the tools from industrial work/use. I probably wouldn't bother if only doing the odd thing around the house. (edited)
Personally I would opt for the hex crimp rather than square.

Trapezoid/Hexagonal ferrules have smaller sides too so limit contact patch but often if its a round hole its going in go for trap/hex, if its square go for ... square.
Keep the crimper, chuck the ferrules in the bin. Replace them from a local distributor. 100 packs for a couple of quid at TLC.
Your house and life are worth more than 47p.
Keep an eye out.

I have never done this, honest, just a warning to you
With any deal like this from these Chinese sellers, in my experience, the customer loses out. In spite of the pictures it turns out to be one pcs instead of ten or you are charged ten times the apparent price! Or the size is much smaller than it appears to be, or it isn't stainless steel.
It's even worse with anything electrical.
But what can possibly go wrong with this?
