Aluminium 10 to 400 sq mm; copper 16 to 400 sq mm, hand-operated hydraulic crimping tool, 7.00 kg. HEXPRESS-400 is a hydraulic compression tool for crimping cable lugs, terminals and connectors onto conductors of aluminium 10 to 400 sq mm; copper 16 to 400 sq mm. The pump is built into the tool: closing the two handles pumps the ram, so one person crimps large lugs without a separate pump. Price on request.

Why choose HEXPRESS-400

• Hydraulic force, not arm strength - the pump does the work, so every crimp on a large lug is closed fully
• Dies matched to the lug size give a uniform compression joint
• Sized by conductor cross-section, like the HEX lugs and connectors they crimp
• One tool covers a wide range of sizes, so fewer tools go to site
• Self-contained - pump, ram and head in one tool

How it is used

1. Fit the die pair for the lug size in the head.
2. Strip the conductor, insert it fully into the lug barrel and place the barrel between the dies.
3. Pump the two handles until the dies have closed completely.
4. Open the release valve to retract the ram, then remove and inspect the crimped lug.

Where it is used

• Terminating power cables on switchgear, transformers and distribution boards
• Cable joints and terminations on site and in panel shops
• Earthing and bonding conductors
• Solar, industrial and utility installations with large copper and aluminium cables
