4-70mm Hydraulic crimping tool
KSh 5500
- Crimping Range (4-70mm²): This is the most important specification, indicating the cross-sectional area of the copper or aluminum cable lugs/terminals that the tool can effectively crimp. This range is common for various electrical installations, automotive applications, and panel wiring.
- Hydraulic Mechanism: Instead of purely manual force, a small hydraulic pump within the tool amplifies the user’s effort to create a powerful crimping force. This makes it easier to achieve tight, consistent crimps on larger conductors, which would be difficult or impossible with manual crimpers.
- Crimping Force (e.g., 45KN, 50KN, 60KN): This indicates the maximum force the tool can exert. Higher force generally means it can handle tougher materials or produce more robust crimps. For a 4-70mm² range, common forces are around 45KN to 60KN (Kilonewtons).
- Crimping Type (Hexagon Crimping): Most hydraulic crimpers for this range produce a hexagonal crimp. This shape provides excellent electrical contact and mechanical strength, ensuring a secure and durable connection between the cable and the lug.
- Interchangeable Dies: The tool comes with a set of dies (jaws) of different sizes (e.g., 4, 6, 10, 16, 25, 35, 50, 70mm²). These dies are easily swapped to match the specific cable and lug size being crimped.
- C-shaped or Open Head: Many hydraulic crimpers have a “C-shaped” head that can be opened to allow easy side entry of the cable and lug, particularly useful in tight spaces. Some can also rotate 180 degrees.
- Safety Valve/Pressure Release: A safety mechanism often built in to prevent over-crimping and damage to the tool or the connection. Once the maximum pressure is reached, it automatically releases.
- Stroke: The distance the piston travels to create the crimp.
- Material: Typically constructed from durable materials like hardened steel for the head and piston, and often with comfortable, non-slip handles (e.g., PVC or rubberized grips).
- Portability: Usually comes in a blow-molded carrying case for easy storage and transport of the tool and its dies.
