CPS229 wrench-operated air conditioning crimper with dies

The CPS229 air conditioning crimper is a manual device designed for crimping fittings onto air conditioning hoses. The crimping mechanism is operated using a wrench, without the need for a hydraulic pump. The set includes four sizes of interchangeable dies: #6 (5/16"), #8 (13/32"), #10 (1/2"), and #12 (5/8"). The device is equipped with a base for mounting on a workbench or in a vise. The entire set is delivered in a case designed for storing the crimper and its accessories.

Application and technical characteristics

The CPS229 crimper is used for making crimped connections on air conditioning hoses. The crimp is performed mechanically by tightening the jaws with a wrench. The design of the device allows it to be fixed to a workstation using the included base.

Interchangeable dies allow for selecting the tool size for the specific connection. Their installation in the crimper jaws does not require additional screws or mounting accessories. Before crimping, check the compatibility of the die with the hose and fitting, and follow the required crimping dimensions.
