Greenlee K09-SYNCRO Hand Crimping Tool, 1 AWG - 250 kcmil

The Greenlee K09-SYNCRO Hand Crimping Tool comes with a built - in crimper. Its unique features make it a top - notch choice in the market. The built - in dies get rid of loose parts and accelerate the crimping process. The patented SYNCRO die design has a single dial that rotates both dies, avoiding die misalignment and minimizing rework. There's a color - coded die selection wheel on one dial, enabling quick and effortless die selection. The engraved crimp groove makes it simple to confirm that the connection is properly made. The locking, extendable handles with four length positions offer better maneuverability and more leverage. The handle design and grips efficiently transfer arm force to the tool, providing a more comfortable and easier - to - use experience. It requires up to 35% less muscle effort compared to competing products. Even after 10,000 cycles, it can still crimp accurately. The phosphated, polished, and tempered dies enhance durability and corrosion resistance. This tool is suitable for small copper connectors with a capacity ranging from 1 AWG to 250 kcmil.

Using the Greenlee K09 - SYNCRO Hand Crimping Tool is quite easy. First, select the appropriate die using the color - coded one - dial die selection wheel according to your connector size. Then, place the connector in the crimper. Extend the handles to the desired length for better leverage and lock them in place. Apply pressure to the handles, and the tool will crimp the connector. When you're done, check the engraved crimp groove to make sure the connection is proper. As for maintenance, keep the tool clean and dry. After long - term use, you may need to lubricate the moving parts to ensure smooth operation. Also, store it in a cool, dry place to prevent corrosion. Avoid using it on connectors that are out of its capacity range, as this may damage the tool and affect the crimp quality.
