IMPORTANT FEATURES OF THE CT-2500 and CT-2500/E
BATTERY OPERATED CRIMPING TOOLS
•
The hydraulic unit incorporates an automatic retraction which returns the piston into its starting
position when the maximum force is reached.
•
The unit is equipped with a special brake which stops the forward motion of the piston/dies
when the trigger is released.
•
To simplify operation and gain better access to tight corners and other difficult working areas,
the crimping head may be rotated, by hand, 360° relative to the tool body.
•
The tool is very lightweight and provides good handling through an ergonomic design.
