BURNDY Y35-2 HYPRESS Hydraulic Crimping Tool
The BURNDY Y35-2 HYPRESS is a heavy-duty, 12-ton hydraulic crimping tool designed for precision compression grounding and overhead line applications. It features a versatile C-shaped head that rotates 180 degrees, allowing technicians to maneuver in restricted workspaces or awkward angles during installation.
This Y35-2 variant is engineered with a rugged 3/16-inch rubber covering over the body, providing essential impact protection for rigorous field use. The tool utilizes a rapid ram advance mechanism to minimize installation time and incorporates an automatic 10,000 PSI blow-off pressure release valve to ensure consistent, positive crimping on every cycle.
