Tyco Electronics has introduced a new line of hydraulic tooling and U-dies for a range of electrical terminals and splices. The new line of hydraulic crimping products includes a selection of hydraulic pumps, controls and hose, heavy-duty crimp heads for shank dies, medium-duty crimp heads and hand tools for U-dies, and integrated crimp die tooling for Solistrand terminals. For applications requiring additional portability, a portable battery-powered hydraulic unit, and a self-contained power unit are available. Heavy-gauge electrical terminals are typically used in power distribution or grounding applications in electrical construction, industrial machinery, welding equipment, aerospace, railway and other applications.

The new hydraulic crimping tools operate at 10,000 psi, and in combination with the interchangeable U-dies and heads, are suitable for crimping applications requiring up to 12 tons of crimp force. U-dies accommodate stroke options of 1" or 1½".
