Zupper Battery Powered Hydraulic Cable Cutter 52mm ACSR ED-55

When working on major power grid upgrades or heavy infrastructure projects, dealing with Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR) cables and solid steel rebars presents a severe challenge. Standard Cu/Al ratcheting cutters will shatter if used on steel cores, and relying on abrasive angle grinders violates site safety regulations by creating hazardous flying sparks.

The Zupper battery hydraulic cable cutter ED-55 was manufactured to replace those dangerous and inefficient cutting methods. Unlike standard electrical shears, this 18V battery-powered tool features a reinforced latch-head design and a massive 120KN (12-ton) hydraulic cylinder. It is specifically used for shearing through extreme-duty materials, including 52mm ACSR, 55mm armored cables, and even 22mm solid steel rebar, making it the ultimate multi-material cutter for overhead line workers and heavy M&E contractors.

Heavy-duty multi-material capabilities

Most hydraulic cable cutters on the market are strictly limited to soft copper and aluminum. The ED-55 breaks this limitation through its specialized high-carbon alloy steel blades and 12-ton crushing force.

• Overhead transmission lines: It easily shears through ACSR up to 52mm, cutting both the aluminum conductive layers and the high-tensile steel core in a single, clean motion.

• Armored and main feeder cables: It handles heavily armored underground power cables up to 55mm without crushing the internal conductors, preparing them for immediate termination.

• Construction and rigging materials: Beyond electrical cables, the ED-55 serves as a heavy-duty construction rescue tool, capable of slicing through 22mm mild iron rods, 22mm reinforced concrete rebar, and 30mm steel wire ropes.

Operational efficiency and site safety

Carrying multiple specific cutters for wire ropes, rebars, and cables is a logistical nightmare for field technicians. The ED-55 consolidates these tasks into one highly portable 8kg unit.

The closed-jaw cutting head utilizes a heavy-duty locking pin. You simply open the latch, place the extreme-diameter cable inside, lock it securely, and pull the trigger. The cold-shearing process guarantees zero flying sparks and zero heat generation. Once the 58mm hydraulic stroke completes the cut, the automatic retraction system immediately resets the blade, allowing your team to move to the next cut rapidly without manual pumping or resetting.
