HEX HEXPRESS G1-400 Gear-Operated Crimping Tool – Hexagon Dies H-50 to H-400, 50 to 400 sq mm, 9.50 kg

50 to 400 sq mm, gear-operated hand crimping tool with hexagon-profile dies, 9.50 kg. HEXPRESS G1-400 is a mechanical crimping tool: the force comes from the handles, with no hydraulics to maintain. It uses hexagon-profile dies H-50 to H-400, one for each lug size, so the compression is the same on every joint. It is gear operated: a gear mechanism multiplies the force from the handles. Price on request.

HEXPRESS is the crimping-tool range of HEX - the brand of Brass Copper & Alloy (I) Ltd., Mumbai, an ISO 9001 company - sold alongside the HEX cable lugs, terminals and ferrules it is sized to crimp. Use it with HEX copper tubular lugs and crimping sleeves of the same sizes.

Why choose HEXPRESS G1-400

• Mechanical - nothing to leak or service
• Sized by conductor cross-section, like the HEX lugs it crimps
• One die per size for a repeatable compression
• Gear operated - more force from the same handle effort
• Long handles for the force a 400 sq mm crimp needs

How it is used

1. Fit the die for the lug size.
2. Strip the conductor and insert it fully into the lug barrel.
3. Place the barrel in the jaw between the dies and close the handles fully.
4. Remove the lug and check that the crimp is complete and centred on the barrel.
