Greenlee Crimper 6T Li Ion Standard CJD3 (Bare Tool)

Description

Eliminate the physical strain of manual lever crimpers on long distribution rebuild shifts with motorized six-ton hydraulic power. The Greenlee EK425LXDB 6T Crimper Tool utilizes an industry standard CJD3 jaw to compress line taps. It speeds up line terminations, though this bare tool requires purchasing eighteen-volt batteries and chargers separately.

High-strength glass-reinforced nylon forms the motor housing, paired with a forged alloy steel CJD3 jaw that withstands six tons of compressive force. Powered by an 18-volt DC motor, the compact hydraulic pump generates 10000 PSI operating pressure inside a sealed system. The bare tool weighs 4.8 lbs, measuring 14.5 inches long by 3.0 inches wide by 4.5 inches high. A 350-degree rotating head eases line access.

Key Features of Greenlee EK425LXDB

Linemen looking to buy Greenlee EK425LXDB tools complete distribution splices and secondary taps with single-handed balance. Professional equipment pricing reflects the six-ton hydraulic platform, proven CJD3 jaw, and intelligent cycle monitoring.

• Delivers six tons of hydraulic force across an industry standard CJD3 jaw head.
• Accepts standard W-style dies for overhead distribution taps and sleeves.
• Intelli-CRIMP technology verifies full cycle pressure with visual LED signals.
• Head rotates 350 degrees to access angled conductors in cramped bucket workspaces.
• Two-stage hydraulic pump delivers rapid ram advance to cut cycle times.
• Inline linear frame balances in one hand to reduce operator shoulder strain.
• Compatible with standard 18-volt lithium-ion tool batteries for long runtime.
• Automatic retraction returns the ram once target tonnage registers on sensors.

CJD3 Head Hydraulic Tonnage Metrics

Compressing 4/0 ACSR distribution sleeves in the CJD3 jaw draws 9600 PSI hydraulic line pressure. Ram cycle duration completes full connector compression in 2.7 seconds from trigger pull. Jaw cheek deflection measures under 0.0016 inch under peak six-ton load. Intelli-CRIMP sensors record target pressure within one percent across one hundred consecutive utility terminations. Hydraulic oil temperature stabilizes at eighteen degrees Fahrenheit above ambient levels after thirty cycles on utility staging benches without fluid weepage around the ram seals on overhead line construction tests in cold outdoor weather conditions.

Lineman Ergonomics Negative Filter Rules

The slender inline barrel balances in one hand aloft, making overhead pole line terminations manageable inside crowded bucket trucks. The trigger actuates through heavy insulated rubber gauntlets, while green LED indicators confirm complete cycle tonnage. Do not buy this six-ton bare tool for heavy underground transmission cable exceeding 4/0 AWG.

• Wipe conductive paste and road film off the CJD3 jaw after each shift.
• Inspect die retention spring detents for positive locking action once a week.
• Clean the linear barrel casing with a clean cloth once a month.

Greenlee CJD3 Tool Warranty Terms

Greenlee covers this six-ton bare crimper tool with a 7-Year commercial manufacturer warranty.
