A repositioned grip helps balance the tool, while a 340-degree rotating head provides a neutral wrist position regardless of the way the user needs to crimp, delivering the easiest alignment in the industry. Eight interchangeable jaws allow users to tackle of variety of applications with this one tool, including up to 4/0 line taps and up to 750MCM Cu, 1000MCM Al, 477 ACSR, EHS Guy Wire, 3/20 cm Rebar, and 3/20 cm Ground Rod.
Featuring Predictive Force Monitoring (PFM), an adaptive pressure control system, the tool constantly measures force output delivering consistent speed that wont bog down on larger connectors. The green LED indicator light gives users an instant indication of pressure to verify that they have achieved the right pressure each time. The pre-crimp battery test automatically checks for enough battery charge to complete each crimp. It also ensures that the connector does not get stuck, which is a common problem with comparable units.
When powered by an M18 REDLITHIUM CP2.0 Battery Pack, the tool delivers up to 240 crimps per charge and is optimized for consistent performance from -20C/-16 C to 60C/60 C giving confidence that any job can be completed in any environment. For maximum protection against the elements, sealed electronics keep dirt, dust and moisture out, protecting internal components for the longest tool life in the industry.
