Hydraulic crimping pliers for 2mm - 10mm ropes

Our hydraulic hand crimping pliers are optimal for crimping terminals and crimping clamps for some wire rope end connections on site. Each crimping tong comes in a convenient plastic case and is equipped with a set of crimping jaws suitable for its application. The crimping tongs are ideal for crimping aluminum or copper crimping sleeves and crimping terminals for thickness of 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm & 10mm, stainless steel crimping terminals can be crimped for thickness of 3mm, 4mm, 5mm & 6mm. In addition, wire rope terminals of thickness 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm & 6mm (please note breaking force) can be crimped. 

Please note that stainless steel lens head terminals and stainless steel ball terminals, due to their small diameter, must be crimped with a smaller crimping jaw size each. A 4mm lens head terminal must therefore be pressed with the press jaw size for 3mm terminals.

Tested quality: With the help of the hydraulic pressing sleeve tongs, rope end connections, with up to 3 times pressing of press terminals, wire rope terminals, as well as oil terminals for sheathed wire ropes for fitness equipment were carried out. Subsequently, by calibrated universal tensile testing machines, the following breaking forces (converted to kg) of the pressed wire ropes could be determined:

• 2mm with terminals: 326kg
• 3mm with terminals: 326kg
• 4mm with terminals: 907kg
• 5mm with terminals: 968kg
• 6mm with terminals: 448kg
• 3mm with aluminum clamps: 428kg
• 4mm with aluminum clamps: 937kg
• 5mm with aluminum clamps: 764kg
• 6mm with aluminum clamps: 1.070kg
• 8mm with aluminum clamps: 2.854kg
• 10mm with aluminum clamps: 4.892kg
• 3mm with copper clamps: 601kg
• 4mm with copper clamps: 1.233kg
• 5mm with copper clamps: 1.172kg
• 6mm with copper clamps: 2.354kg
• 8mm with copper clamps: 4.342kg
• 10mm with copper clamps: 5.402kg
• 3mm with stainless steel clamps: 632kg
• 4mm with stainless steel clamps: 1.172kg
• 5mm with stainless steel clamps: 1.040kg
• 6mm with stainless steel clamps: 754kg
• 4mm (3 on 4) with oil terminals: 886kg
• 5mm (4 to 5) with oil terminals: 1.121kg
• 2mm with stainless steel eyelet terminals: 254kg
• 3mm with stainless steel eyelet terminals: 326kg
• 4mm with stainless steel eyelet terminals: 509kg
• 5mm with stainless steel eyelet terminals: 428kg
• 6mm with stainless steel eyelet terminals: 450kg

Attention. No safety factor was taken into account when specifying the breaking forces! Please calculate at least a 5-fold safety factor to the possible payload for your application. The detailed test reports can be found under "Test reports" on the article page.

Easy handling: The hydraulic crimping tongs are equipped with PVC-covered handles and can be operated quickly and easily by one person. Both crimping sleeves and terminals on wire ropes can be crimped.

Versatile applications: With the help of the hydraulic hand crimping pliers, of course, all mentioned steel cables, stainless steel cables or wire ropes with oval or round crimping clamps and crimping sleeves of the thicknesses 3mm - 10mm, as well as with roller terminals of the thicknesses 2mm - 6mm can be neatly crimped.
