Description
Install heavy electrical cable lugs and large copper water lines without hand-pumping hydraulic tools. The DEWALT 20 V MAX Press tool without crimping heads delivers high-tonnage crimping force using cordless motor power. This heavy-duty tool presses commercial plumbing lines and crimges electrical service entrance cables. It cannot operate without compatible DEWALT or universal-style crimping heads.
A durable brushless electric motor pairs with a heavy electro-hydraulic ram to deliver 40 kilonewtons of linear crimping force. The balanced inline tool chassis features a 360-degree rotating head collar that positions interchangeable jaw sets around tight structural framing. Onboard diagnostics monitor cycle pressure, illuminating a bright LED indicator to confirm full crimp completion on every joint. Rubberized overmold grips absorb tool recoil during high-tonnage cycles.
High Tonnage Press Tool Hardware Specs
Commercial electrical contractors and industrial maintenance technicians require high-tonnage cordless press tools to terminate large electrical cables and water pipes. This bare power unit drives multiple mechanical crimp heads.
- Brushless motor generates 40 kilonewtons of linear hydraulic force for heavy crimping
- Universal head receiver accepts standard commercial plumbing jaws and electrical crimp dies
- 360-degree rotating head collar positions crimping heads around crowded cable trays
- Crimp-Connect diagnostic software tracks completed tool cycles and calibration dates
- Bright LED indicator provides immediate visual confirmation of successful press cycles
- Rubberized ergonomic body grip reduces operator fatigue during repetitive cable crimping
- Dual 4.0 Ah lithium-ion battery packs power hundreds of crimping cycles per charge
Electro-Hydraulic Bench Dyno Telemetry
Hydraulic bench load testing records 9000 pounds of linear ram thrust across 500 MCM copper electrical lugs. Stroke cycle duration clocks at 5.2 seconds under full hydraulic pressure. Sound pressure meters record 76 dBA at three feet during motor and pump cycling. Hydraulic oil temperature stabilizes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit above ambient conditions after fifty continuous high-pressure crimp strokes.
High Tonnage Crimping Operating Boundaries
Insert the appropriate crimping jaw or die set, lock the retaining pin, align the dies square over the fitting, and hold the trigger until the ram cycles back. Do not operate this tool with missing jaw retaining pins or damaged crimping dies.
- Head receiver pivot slots require light grease lubrication every fifty cycles
- Jaw retaining lock pins demand visual checks for bending before every shift
- Motor air intake vents require dry compressed air cleaning every forty hours
