Review on Hydraulic Battery Terminal Crimper Crimping by Adam Cummings

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent wire crimp tool

I love this Hyclat hydraulic wire crimp tool. After years of struggling with various tools, including driving in ferrules with a crimping tool and a hammer, I finally found the perfect solution. Using a good selection of dies, I've crimped wires from 4 gauge AWG with a #25 die to 0 gauge AWG with a #35 die, making battery cables for my solar assembly with excellent results. It took a few times to find a technician to secure the tip and wire in the tool while I pumped the pen. So I decided to build a jig that will hold the crimping tool steady while I insert the wire into the ferrule and swing the handle. Now it's so easy to use and I get perfect curves every time. Check out my Bright Spark Ideas YouTube channel for full fixture layout and ease of use. I highly recommend this crimping tool.
