RS PRO brings to you a hydraulic crimp tool, designed for industrial cable assembly applications such as car battery cables. Where conventional crimpers won ‘t do this tool meets the challenge and packs a real punch. This compact hand tool has the benefit of spring-loaded handles, a 180° rotational head and a selection of dies that can be advanced using only one hand leaving the other free to position the cable and connector.

Maintenance and repair Electrical Installations Cable assemblies FAQ: How easy are they to ***? Although this kit may look intimidating at first glance, it ‘s fairly simple to ***. During application prepare the cable and slide on the connector, select and insert the required die, insert the cable and connector. Holding the cable in position with one hand, prime the handle until the crimp tool starts to bite, once you feel resistance you can *** both hands to increase the pressure and complete the union. How do you maintain the product? Movable parts should be regularly lubricated. Lubrication* is recomm***ed at least every 10,000 cycles whenever the tool is exposed to contaminants. The Importance of a High-Quality Crimp When a crimping tool is ***d on a terminal, two crimps take place at the same time. One is the electrical connection between the conductor and terminal. The other is the insulation crimp which provides strain relief against vibration and tension. It is important that the electrical connection is gas-tight without any voids between the wire strands and the terminal. If there any voids present, then corrosion can occur causing resistance and excessive heat which damages the electrical connection. Using a good quality crimping tool will ensure that a full, gas-tight crimp is produced preventing future deterioration of the electrical connection and insulation breakage.
