A tool for securing a clamp having a band and a clip is provided. The tool includes a base member and a first handle coupled to the base member. A cinching handle is rotationally coupled to the base member adjacent the first handle. A crimping handle is rotationally coupled to the base member adjacent the first handle opposite the cinching handle. A holding means is provided for holding the clip. A tensioning means is provided for moving a tab end portion of the band through the clip, the tensioning means being operably coupled to the cinching handle. A crimping means is provided for locking the clip to the band, the crimping means being operably coupled to the crimping handle. A severing means is provided for severing the tab end portion from the band, the severing means being operably coupled to the crimping handle.

Tool for securing a clamp

A tool and method of securing a clamp is provided. The tool includes a first handle having a first jaw portion on one end. An arm is pivotally coupled to the first handle, the having a second jaw portion on one end. A second handle is adjacent the first handle. A force adjustment mechanism is rotatably coupled between the arm and the second handle. The force adjustment mechanism has a biasing member operably coupled between the arm and an adjustment member, the force adjustment mechanism further having at least one bearing member disposed between the arm and the adjustment member. The second handle is arranged to rotate relative to the arm based at least in part on a force applied on the second handle by the biasing member via the at least one bearing member.

Tool

A tool for crimping a ring member on a pipe is provided. The tool includes a first arm having a plurality of slots on a first side and a second slot on a second side. Each slot of the plurality of slots is a different size diameter, and the at least one second slot has a different size. The tool further includes a second arm operably coupled to rotate. The second arm having a plurality of slots on a third side and at least one fourth slot on a fourth side. Each of the plurality of slots are sized and positioned to cooperate with each other when in the first position to crimp the ring member. The at least one fourth slot is sized and positioned to cooperate with the at least one second slot when in the second position to crimp the ring member.

Crimping tool

Cutting tool

The tool is provided comprising a first and second arm. The first arm having a first and second die slot on a side and a third die slot on an opposing side. The first arm further having a first gage slot on the side adjacent the second die slot and a second gage slot on the opposing side. The second arm being operably coupled to rotate relative to the first arm. The second arm having a fourth and a fifth die slot on a side arranged opposite the first die slot and the second die slot when the second arm is in a first position, the second arm also having a sixth die slot on an opposing side from the first die, the second arm further having a third gage slot on the side adjacent the fifth die slot and a fourth gage slot on the opposing side.

A tool is provided for preparing a cable for crimping. The tool includes a first pressure arm and a second pressure arm. An intermediate member is disposed between the first pressure arm and the second pressure arm, the intermediate member being rotationally coupled to the first pressure arm by a first pivot and rotationally coupled to the second pressure arm by a second pivot. The intermediate member includes a first pair of slots adjacent the first pressure arm and a second pair of slots adjacent the second pressure arm. A first pair of stripping cartridges is removably coupled to the first pair of slots. A second pair of stripping cartridges removably coupled to the second pair of slots.

Cable preparation tool

A crimping tool is provided for coupling a pipe with a connector or fitting. The crimping tool includes a first jaw having an opening on one side. The opening has a first slot sized and shaped to receive a portion of a pipe connector. A second jaw is operably coupled to the first jaw, the second jaw having a semi-cylindrical surface on one side with a second slot disposed therein. The semi-cylindrical surface sized and shaped to receive a portion of the pipe connector. The first jaw and second jaw are moveable between a first position and a second position, the semi-cylindrical surface being arranged at least partially within the opening when in the closed position.
