Huskie 60-Ton Single-Acting Hydraulic Cable Crimping Press (5-year warranty) EP-60SA

Compression Press Head that sets the benchmark for robust hydraulic compression in field and shop environments where maximum force and reliability are essential. This 60-ton single-acting hydraulic press head is specifically designed to crimp sleeves and lugs on large-diameter ACSR and ACAR conductors used in transmission and distribution systems, substation construction, and heavy utility infrastructure. Operable from any standard 10,000 psi hydraulic pump, the EP-60SA delivers powerful compression while remaining portable and maneuverable compared with larger stationary press systems — making it ideal for field crews, service centers, and maintenance operations. Its design accepts common shell-type dies used with major press manufacturers, ensuring broad die compatibility and flexibility across job requirements. The high tonnage hydraulic force makes it better suited for large transmission-class conductors and heavy compression applications where consistent, high-capacity output is required. Whether in the field or the shop, this tool provides professionals with the strength, durability, and versatility needed for challenging electrical compression tasks.
