BURNDY PAT750CLI PATRIOT 12-Ton Hydraulic Crimper
The BURNDY PAT750CLI PATRIOT is a battery-actuated, 12-ton hydraulic crimper designed with a protective rubber-covered C-head. This specialized head provides additional impact resistance for crews working in confined enclosures, hazardous locations, or around equipment. The tool delivers an unyielding 12 tons of crimp force for dependable tension sleeves, terminal installations, splices, and HYGROUND compression grounding systems.
Equipped with a 355-degree rotating head and a 1.65-inch jaw opening, the PAT750CLI easily accepts industry-standard U dies. Power is supplied by a robust 18V 3.0Ah Lithium-Ion battery platform that supports an internal forced-air cooling fan, keeping battery temperatures managed during heavy cycles and fast 30-minute recharges.
