Ingco Hydraulic Crimping Tool 45KN HHCT0170 with 9 Hex Dies
TSh 234,000
Our review
This is a hand-operated hydraulic crimping tool from Ingco, built around a 45KN crimping force and a hexagonal crimp profile. It arrives with nine interchangeable dies covering copper cable from 4mm2 up to 70mm2, plus a set of sealing O-rings, all packed in a BMC case. The body runs roughly 310mm long and weighs about 1.80kg, so it is a two-hand bench or site tool rather than something you carry in a pocket.
It suits electricians, solar installers and panel builders who terminate copper lugs regularly and want consistent hex crimps without a powered pump. Before buying, confirm your cable sizes fall inside the 4-70mm2 copper range, since this tool is not intended for aluminium or larger conductors. Check that the 11mm crimping stroke and the supplied die sizes match the lugs you actually use.
Compared with manual ratchet crimpers, a hydraulic tool like this needs less hand force on thicker cable, but it is heavier and slower to swap dies. Compare die range, crimp shape and force rating against other hydraulic crimpers before deciding. Available on Sokonia.
