Product Description

The Burndy PATMD6-14V crimping tool is a battery actuated hydraulic crimper that produces 6 tons (5.4 metric tons) of force and is suitable for installing a range of copper and aluminum terminals and splices. It comes with a permanent “BG” groove, and a “D3” groove that accepts all Burndy “W” and “X” style dies (not included). Its interchangeable scissor action crimp jaws rotate 350 degrees for improved access to tight spaces, and its advance, retract, and hold functions allow for one-handed operation, while an audible “pop” indicates completion of the crimp cycle. This crimper comes with a high-impact plastic carrying case to hold the tool, a battery charger, and two 14.4V nickel–metal hydride (NiMH) batteries. This crimping tool is suitable for in-shop or field repairs and installations using aluminum and copper conductors and connectors in a variety of industrial and commercial settings.

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.
