HEX HEXPRESS HY-1000 Hydraulic Crimping Tool – Remote Head & Hand Pump, 120 to 1000 sq mm, 25.50 kg

120 to 1000 sq mm, hydraulic crimping tool with separate head and hand pump, 25.50 kg. HEXPRESS HY-1000 is a hydraulic compression tool for crimping cable lugs, terminals and connectors onto conductors of 120 to 1000 sq mm. The crimping head is separate from the hand pump and connected by a hydraulic hose, so the head goes where the cable is - in a trench, a duct or a crowded panel - while the pump is worked outside. Dies: R-11 to R-29 (listed in three groups: R-11 to R-14, R-15 to R-18 and R-19 to R-29). 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, aluminium lugs and crimping sleeves of the same sizes.

Is this the right one for you?

Check these four things before you order:

• Your lugs and connectors are within 120 to 1000 sq mm.
• The crimp has to be made away from the pump - the hose-connected head reaches into trenches and panels.
• You have, or will order, the die pair for each lug size (R-11 to R-29).
• The weight (25.50 kg) suits how the tool will be carried and used.

Why choose HEXPRESS HY-1000

• 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
• Remote head on a hose - crimps where a one-piece tool cannot reach

How it is used

1. Fit the die pair for the lug size in the crimping head.
2. Strip the conductor, insert it fully into the lug barrel and place the barrel between the dies.
3. Pump the hand pump; the head is on a hydraulic hose, so it can sit in a trench, duct or panel while the pump stays outside.
4. Pump until the dies have closed completely, then open the release valve, retract the ram and remove the lug.
5. Inspect the crimp, then clean and store the tool with the dies.

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

Frequently asked questions

What sizes does HEXPRESS HY-1000 crimp?

Cable lugs, terminals and connectors for conductors of 120 to 1000 sq mm.

Does it need dies?

Yes - R-11 to R-29 (listed in three groups: R-11 to R-14, R-15 to R-18 and R-19 to R-29). Each die is matched to one lug size; tell us your lug sizes and we will confirm the die set.

Can it crimp aluminium lugs?

A compression tool crimps any lug whose barrel matches the die, copper or aluminium; for aluminium lugs use the die size the lug calls for and apply a corrosion-inhibiting compound such as HEX HSC-100 to the conductor.

How is the ram released after a crimp?

Open the release valve on the tool; the ram retracts and the dies open so the lug can be removed.
