    Hydraulic Compression Lug and Splice Crimpers

    Image of System. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Wire and Cable Crimpers. Hydraulic Compression Lug and Splice Crimpers.
    The high-pressure pumping system in these crimpers creates enough force to crimp large copper and aluminum lugs. They come with a replaceable pressure cartridge that lasts for 10,000 to 12,000 compressions. They crimp using dies, so they crimp a wider range of lug sizes and are less complicated than dieless crimpers. The head swivels 180°.
    Dies are required. These crimpers accept U-type dies for Alcoa, Burndy, Panduit, T&B, and Blackburn 12-ton tools. We list lug markings for two common manufacturers to help choose the correct die for your compression lug.

    Make quick, consistent crimps from connector to connector with these battery-powered crimpers. They are faster and require less effort than ratcheting crimpers—just press the trigger to crimp. Switch out the dies to make crimps on a wide range of connector sizes. A pressure sensor monitors the force of each crimp and alerts you if the pressure is too low to make a complete connection. Connect these tools to a mobile app using Bluetooth to change settings and view usage data. You can also view the pressure level, battery life, and other diagnostics on the display. The head rotates 350°, so you can position these tools to crimp at difficult angles. An LED light on the front illuminates your workspace.
    Pair them with a crimping die (sold separately) that matches the size and type of your connector. Insert the cable into the connector, line up the connector with the crimping die, and press the trigger to crimp. Jaws open automatically when you release the trigger. These crimpers create UL-certified connections when paired with connectors from Anderson, Blackburn, Burndy, Ilsco, Panduit, Penn-Union, and Thomas & Betts (T & B).
    Straight Handle—Crimpers with a straight handle are thinner than crimpers with an angled head, so they fit into tighter spaces.
    Angled Handle—Crimpers with an angled handle are more comfortable to hold when crimping parallel to a table or workbench. They have a higher compression force for crimping larger gauges of wire.
    Cannot Be Sold Outside United States—Replacement batteries and chargers cannot be sold outside the United States due to product regulations.
