Hydraulic Crimping Head
A hydraulic crimping head separates the crimping end from the pump, so the heavy force sits at the lug while you work the pump from a safe distance. Cable jointers, substation crews and power contractors use these heads on the largest lugs in the range. As a remote crimping head or hydraulic crimping tool head, it connects by hose to a hand operated hydraulic pump or foot pump.

Hydraulic Crimping Tool Head for Large Lugs
Large lugs need high force, and a hydraulic crimping tool head delivers it without a long handle in the way. Lay the head on the lug, work the pump, and the head closes the dies evenly around the barrel. A crimping head with hand pump also lets one person crimp in a trench or cable basement where swinging a big tool is hard. Look up the product page for the lug range and the pump it needs.
Cut cable square before crimping with a hydraulic cable cutter, and use lugs from our cable lugs range. For cordless jobs, see our battery operated tools. Every order comes direct from Ashwin Tools with 10-day returns. Power tool dealers can apply through our dealership programme.
