Crimping electrical joints in cooking applicances

[generatemutate]

Hi all

I have recently been repairing a crepe cooker and a hotplate where the thermal fuse has gone. My problem is how best to make the joints between the stranded wire and the solid strand legs of the replacement thermal fuse. The original thermal fuse was connected via a kind of crimp. However, it is much neater and stronger than I can make with a standard crimp tool.

On the hot plate there is very little space to make the joint.

Is there a special tool for this work or an I missing a technique or something else?

Thanks in advance 8)
