Product description
Go to offerDescription:
This hand tool is a heavy-duty crimper designed for battery cable lugs and large gauge wires, built to help electricians and DIYers achieve secure, repeatable crimps. It works as a battery cable crimping tool for 6-50 mm² and is useful when you need reliable mechanical and electrical connections for automotive, marine or industrial wiring.
Key Points
The pliers include a ratchet mechanism that ensures the crimp is completed before the jaws release, making each operation consistent and safe. The long non-slip handles improve leverage and reduce hand fatigue during repeated use. The head and dies are made from hardened material for wear resistance, and the tool comes with a set of terminals to cover common cable sizes. For users who do several crimps in a session, the reinforced construction helps maintain alignment and pressure over time. 🛠️
Technical Specifications
- Name: Dechengbao HX-50B
- Crimping range: 6–50 mm² (AWG 8–1/0)
- Material: hardened steel with a thickened metal reinforcement
- Included accessories: 60 terminals approximately (manufacturer information)
- Handle: non-slip long handles for improved leverage
Practical Tips
Work in a well-lit area to verify conductor preparation before crimping, and strip the insulation to the correct length for the terminal being used. For best results, position the lug fully into the die and operate the ratchet until it releases. If you are crimping thicker cables frequently, consider checking die faces for wear periodically, because even hardened surfaces may show usage marks after heavy work. ⚙️
Nuances and Limitations
The tool performs well for the specified range, but it is not intended for precision micro crimps or for cable sizes outside 6–50 mm². The set of terminals included is useful for common jobs, however the exact count and types may vary according to supply batches, according to the manufacturer. Consider that very high-volume commercial workshops might prefer a hydraulic or bench-mounted crimper for faster throughput. 🧰.
