Product Description

The Burndy PAT600-18V Patriot crimping tool is a battery actuated hydraulic crimper that produces 6 tons (5.4 metric tons) of force and is suitable for installing splices, taps, and terminators on a range of copper and aluminum conductors. It has a crimp head mechanism capable of 180-degree rotation for flexible access to tight work spaces, a ram that will hold its position when the trigger is released, and an audible “pop” feature that indicates the end of the crimp cycle. This tool comes with a high-impact plastic carrying case to hold the tool, a battery charger, two 18V nickel–metal hydride (NiMH) batteries, and up to 10 “W” style dies (not included). This crimping tool is suitable for use with a range of copper and aluminum conductors and connectors in industrial and commercial applications.

Crimpers, also called crimping tools, pinch wire terminals and connectors to wires to prepare them for use in electrical or communications applications. They have nests and indenters that vary in size and shape according to application. Manual crimpers are suitable for portable applications that create small terminal connections while power crimpers use air, electricity, hydraulic power, or a combination of these to aid compression, and are used in high volume applications. Crimpers can be used for applications ranging from manual field repairs to fully automated terminal production operations.
