BURNDY PAT221A02A2 PATRIOT 2-Ton Small Terminal Crimper
The BURNDY PAT221A02A2 is a highly compact, battery-actuated crimping tool engineered to deliver 2 tons of precision crimping force. Designed specifically for close-quarters work in electrical panels and confined junction boxes, this tool effectively covers #22 to #1 AWG copper terminals and splices—the largest capacity range in its compact class.
Operating on the reliable Makita 18V lithium-ion battery platform, the PAT221A02A2 features a 1-second cycle time with auto-retract and calibration functionality. Its scissor-action angled head and Connector Hold feature simplify wire insertion in difficult angles. Operator feedback is provided through an integrated LED worklight and a red LED indicator that flags incomplete crimps, ensuring secure and verified terminations every time.
Key Features
