Cordless Power Where the Cable Ends

Heavy cable lug crimping has traditionally meant either a large hydraulic press anchored to a workbench or a manual tool that demands significant physical effort on large conductor sizes. Neither is practical when the work is happening inside a cabinet, up a ladder, or at a distribution point where mains power is not available. The Paprsky PT-HCT-255 Battery Operated Hydraulic Crimping Tool removes both limitations, delivering 60KN of hydraulic crimping force from a cordless, one-hand-operable tool that works wherever the cable ends without a power outlet, without a second operator, and without compromise on crimp quality.

What Is a Battery Operated Hydraulic Crimping Tool?

A battery operated hydraulic crimping tool uses an internal battery-powered hydraulic system to generate the high compressive force required to crimp large cable lugs onto heavy conductors. The hydraulic mechanism converts battery power into controlled crimping pressure, producing a cold-weld bond between the conductor and lug that meets the mechanical and electrical requirements of high-current installations. Unlike manual tools that rely entirely on operator hand force, a battery operated crimper delivers consistent, repeatable crimping pressure on every cycle regardless of conductor size, operator fatigue, or working position making it the standard choice for professional cable lug termination work on large cable sizes.

Product Information

The PT-HCT-255 operates at 60KN crimping pressure across a copper lug range of 16mm² to 300mm² and an aluminium lug range of 10mm² to 240mm², covering the full spectrum of heavy cable termination work found in main supply installations, industrial panels, and infrastructure projects. The tool runs on a 20V battery with approximately 5 hours charging time and delivers up to 120 crimps per charge at 150mm² copper, making it productive across full working sessions without interruption. The crimping head rotates 360 degrees and features an automatic pressure relief and reset mechanism, returning the die to the open position after each crimp cycle without manual intervention. Supplied dies cover 16, 25, 35, 50, 70, 95, 120, 150, 185, 240, and 300mm² - eleven sizes covering the complete working range of the tool. The tool weighs 9kg and measures 480 x 100 x 430mm.

Key Features

  • 60KN hydraulic crimping pressure for large copper lugs up to 300mm² and aluminium lugs up to 240mm²
  • 360-degree rotating crimping head for access in confined spaces and awkward working positions
  • Automatic pressure relief and reset returns the die to open position after every crimp cycle automatically
  • One-handed operation enables crimping without a second operator or fixed workbench support
  • Internal microsystem control monitors and manages the hydraulic cycle for consistent crimp quality
  • 20V cordless battery delivers up to 120 crimps per charge at 150mm² copper conductor
  • Eleven supplied die sizes from 16mm² to 300mm² cover the complete crimping range of the tool

Industrial and Professional Applications

  • Main supply and infrastructure installations for crimping large copper and aluminium feeder cable lugs on site without mains power access
  • Industrial panel building and switchgear assembly for terminating incoming supply cables and bus bar connections in confined cabinet interiors
  • Solar and renewable energy installations for crimping DC array cables, inverter input lugs, and AC supply terminations at height or in restricted locations
  • Electrical maintenance and retrofitting for replacing or adding heavy cable lug terminations in live or access-restricted environments
  • Construction and building services for terminating main distribution cables, sub-main feeds, and infrastructure supply conductors across large project sites

The Crimping Tool That Goes Where the Work Is

Large conductor crimping no longer needs to happen at a fixed workbench or within reach of a mains socket. The Paprsky PT-HCT-255 puts 60KN of hydraulic crimping force into a cordless, one-hand-operable tool with a rotating head, automatic reset, and eleven die sizes that cover every lug size the job demands. For electricians and panel builders who work across sites, in cabinets, and at height, this is the crimping tool built around the way professional installation work actually happens.
