I saw that style crimper, but that looks like it’s more for a barrel, and not an open crimp.
I was going to pull the wire out of the engine bay to use the device I’ve got or….
Edit. Looking at a new positive cable, it’s a lot more involved than just a single wire. The crimps you have come with different size crimps, so maybe it’s an alternative

It is an electrical connection and it’s covered with heat shrink tubing.
