The iCrimp Battery Cable Lug Crimping Tool is a heavy-duty tool designed to securely connect cables, electrical devices, and other power mechanisms in harsh duty scenarios. It features a large HX-50BI wire crimper that can crimp 8, 6, 4, 2, 1, and 1/0 gauge battery lugs for a strong mechanical connection. The tool also includes a rotating die set with dimensionally accurate EDM cutting dies, making it easy to change die sizes and ensure correct crimps. Additionally, the hexagonal crimping feature produces a wide area of high-pressure contact between the cable and connector, resulting in low resistance and high pull-out values. This tool is suitable for use in various commercial vehicles, including emergency vehicles, generator sets, recreational vehicles, trucks, cranes, and lifting equipment. Finally, the tool includes a cable cutter made of chrome vanadium steel with beveled cutting edges and induction-hardened, capable of cutting through copper and aluminum cables up to 1/0 AWG.

Review
The iCrimp Battery Cable Lug Crimping Tool is a heavy-duty, high-performance tool that is designed to connect cables, electrical devices, and power mechanisms in harsh duty scenarios. This large wire crimper is specifically designed to crimp 8, 6, 4, 2, 1, and 1/0 gauge battery lugs, making it a versatile and essential tool for any electrician or technician.
One of the standout features of the iCrimp Battery Cable Lug Crimping Tool is its rotating die set. Unlike stamped dies, EDM cutting dies are more dimensionally accurate and reduce incorrect crimps. The rotating die is also compact for quick and easy die changes, which is especially important when working in time-sensitive situations. When size coded crimping is done correctly, the connector will have the die code number embossed on it, making it easy to quickly check to see if the right die and connection were used.
The iCrimp Battery Cable Lug Crimping Tool also utilizes hex-crimping technology to create a strong mechanical connection between the cable and connector. Hexagonal crimping produces a wide area of high-pressure contact between the cable and connector, leading to low resistance and high pull-out values. This ensures that the connection is secure and reliable, even in harsh or demanding environments.
This tool is ideal for use in commercial vehicles, including emergency vehicles, generator sets (Gensets), recreational vehicles, trucks, cranes, and lifting equipment. Its ability to handle a wide range of cable sizes and types makes it an indispensable tool for anyone working in the electrical or mechanical industries.
In addition to its crimping capabilities, the iCrimp Battery Cable Lug Crimping Tool also comes equipped with a cable cutter. The LK-60A Cable Cutter is made of chrome vanadium steel for maximum strength and durability, with beveled cutting edges and induction-hardened. It can easily cut through copper and aluminum cable up to 1/0 AWG with a shear-type jaw. It is not intended for use with steel or ACSR cable.
Overall, the iCrimp Battery Cable Lug Crimping Tool is a reliable, versatile, and high-performance tool that is essential for anyone working in the electrical or mechanical industries. Its rotating die set, hex-crimping technology, and cable cutter make it a must-have tool for anyone who needs to create secure and reliable connections in harsh duty scenarios.
