Zupper Manual Hydraulic Crimping Tool 400mm2 KYQ-400

Terminating heavy electrical feeder cables on remote job sites or unpowered construction zones presents a unique challenge. Standard mechanical ratcheting tools simply cannot generate enough force to compress large-gauge lugs, resulting in loose, high-resistance joints. Conversely, relying strictly on battery-powered tools can stall an entire project if the batteries die and there is no active power grid available for recharging.

The Zupper hydraulic crimper KYQ-400 was manufactured to replace those inadequate mechanical tools and battery-dependent systems. Operating entirely via a heavy-duty manual hydraulic pump, this rugged tool is specifically used for crimping copper and aluminum electrical conductors ranging from 16mm² all the way up to 400mm2. It delivers a massive 120KN of cold-welding compression, ensuring professional, zero-resistance cable terminations in the most isolated industrial environments.

Reliable mechanical termination for heavy cables

The KYQ-400 is built for absolute durability and consistent performance, addressing the core needs of field technicians and heavy M&E contractors.

Complete grid independence

Because it requires zero electricity, the manual hydraulic crimper KYQ-400 is the ultimate backup and primary termination tool for harsh outdoor environments. Whether your team is working in underground utility trenches, offshore oil rigs, or remote solar farms, the integrated hand-pump mechanism guarantees you always have 12 tons of pressing power ready at your fingertips.

120KN of high-pressure compression

To ensure a secure termination on a 400mm2 copper lug, the tool utilizes a dual-speed hydraulic system. The rapid-advance stage quickly pushes the die against the connector, saving time and pumping effort. Once resistance is met, the high-pressure stage engages, delivering 120KN (12 Tons) of force. This immense pressure permanently fuses the cable strands and the lug together, eliminating any microscopic air gaps that could cause electrical arcing or overheating.

Wide C-shaped head design

Maneuvering heavy, stiff 400mm2 cables is difficult. The KYQ-400 features an open C-shaped crimping head with a 22mm stroke. This wide opening allows technicians to easily slide the tool over thick cables and bulky splice connectors directly on the line, without having to awkwardly thread the cable through a closed jaw.

Built-in safety relief valve

To protect the internal hydraulic seals from bursting under extreme pressure, the tool is equipped with an automatic safety relief valve. Once the maximum 120KN pressure is reached and the crimp is perfectly formed, the valve emits a clear "click" sound and bypasses further pressure, preventing the operator from over-crimping and damaging the dies.
