SKU VA17s6NF2
This hydraulic crimping tool measures three hundred ten millimeters in length and weighs approximately one point seventy-five kilograms, featuring a C-style head design that facilitates access to confined spaces during cable installation. The tool accommodates nine interchangeable die sizes numbered four through seventy, supporting cable diameters from one-eighth inch to three-sixteenths inch and wire gauges from twelve AWG to two-aught AWG for both copper and aluminum conductors. Constructed from hardened steel with a deep quenching treatment, the crimping head maintains dimensional stability under repeated use while providing consistent compression force. The tool's hydraulic system operates through an on-off control mechanism that activates the piston when engaged and automatically releases pressure upon completion of the crimping cycle. The chrome-finished dies create uniform compression on stainless steel cable fittings and electrical connectors without deforming the tool components. Proper operation requires shaking the tool gently on a soft surface after prolonged storage to redistribute hydraulic fluid that may have settled during transportation or inactivity.
