Aluminium Crimping Die OMAC F39.2566 – for Hydraulic Presses

Hexagonal crimping die for aluminium conductors

The OMAC F39.2566 is a hexagonal crimping die designed for use with OMAC hydraulic presses F39.100.1 and F39.120.1. It is intended for crimping aluminium fittings, particularly dead-end clamps and connectors used in overhead power transmission and distribution lines.

Correct selection of the crimping die in relation to the conductor type and fitting dimensions is essential to achieve the required dimensions and quality of the crimped connection. Before carrying out the crimping operation, the specifications of the conductor and fitting manufacturer must be taken into account.

Applications of crimping dies for overhead power lines

OMAC crimping dies are used in the construction, modernisation and maintenance of overhead power lines.

Typical applications include:

• crimping aluminium dead-end clamps,
• making connections and crimps on ACSR, ACC, ACCC, ACSS and other conductors,
• installing fittings on overhead conductors,
• installation and maintenance work on electrical power networks.

When selecting the correct die, the material being crimped, conductor type, required dimensions after crimping and the fitting manufacturer’s recommendations must be considered.

Selecting the correct crimping die – conductor diameter and fitting dimensions after crimping

When making conductor connections, it is particularly important to match the die dimensions to the required dimensions of the fitting after crimping.

An incorrectly selected die may result in a defective connection or damage to the conductor or fitting. This can adversely affect the reliability and operational safety of the overhead power line.

Types of crimping dies for OMAC hydraulic presses

Depending on the material being crimped and the required geometry of the connection, different types of dies are available:

• hexagonal crimping dies,
• round crimping dies,
• Tallurit dies.

When placing an order, please specify the material to be crimped – aluminium, steel or copper – and the required die type.

Compatibility with OMAC F39 hydraulic presses

The F39.2566 crimping die is designed for use with OMAC F39.100.1 and F39.120.1 hydraulic presses.

OMAC F39 hydraulic presses can be powered by a separate hydraulic power pack or a hand pump. Their design enables fast crimping cycles. An adjustable pressure control valve with a pressure gauge allows the operator to monitor the working pressure during the crimping process.
