2590032 Cembre HP4-B RATCHET TOOL
Cembre HP4-B manual ratchet crimping tool for blue pre-insulated terminals and connectors for 1.5 to 2.5 mm² conductors featuring adjustable insulation crimp settings and an integrated positioning device.
Why Choose the Cembre HP4-B Mechanical Crimping Tool?
The Cembre HP4-B (2590032) is a professional manual ratchet crimping tool specifically designed for the installation of blue pre-insulated terminals and connectors for conductor sizes from 1.5 to 2.5 mm² (16–14 AWG). As part of the proven Cembre HP4 Series, it provides consistent, repeatable crimps for industrial electrical installations, OEM machine building and control panel manufacturing.
The integrated ratchet mechanism prevents the handles from opening until the crimping cycle has been completed, ensuring reliable compression every time. An integrated positioning device helps reduce operator effort while improving crimp accuracy, and the adjustable insulation crimp settings allow the tool to accommodate varying insulation thicknesses.
Designed for professional electricians, automation engineers and maintenance technicians, the HP4-B combines robust construction, ergonomic handling and dependable crimp quality for demanding industrial applications.
