Crimping Tool Manufacturer | Torchmark Electrical Tools
Torchmark manufactures crimping tools, hydraulic crimping tools and self-adjusting crimping pliers in Ningbo for electrical and cable distributors.
Crimping Tools Made in Ningbo
Torchmark manufactures crimping tools in Ningbo for electrical and cable assembly: manual and hydraulic crimping tools, and self-adjusting crimping pliers for terminal and connector work.
What We Produce
Our crimping range includes general crimping tools, hydraulic crimping tools for larger lugs, and mini self-adjusting crimping pliers. Dies and jaws can be matched to common terminal profiles.
Manufacturing & QC
Crimp jaws are machined and tested for crimp height and pull strength; hydraulic units are pressure-checked per lot. Inspection records are available on request.
What to Specify in a Crimping Tool Range
Crimping tools are process tools: the die, the terminal and the wire have to be specified as one system. A catalogue that lists only a wire range leaves the compression profile undefined, which is where most field failures originate.
Die profile and terminal family
Insulated, non-insulated, ferrule, coax and solar terminals each need a different cavity shape. The complete guide maps the profiles. Self-adjusting designs reduce the risk of a mismatched cavity where many ferrule sizes are used.
Release control
A ratchet or hydraulic release prevents the operator from stopping early or adding one more squeeze. Hydraulic vs manual explains where controlled force matters; above a certain cable size, hand force is simply not repeatable.
Verification and consumables
Agree the pull-test method, crimp-height tolerance and die replacement trigger. The step-by-step procedure shows how those checks fit on the bench. Replacement dies belong in the first order.
Crimping Tool Specification Sheet
Send these fields with the enquiry so samples are built against the right system.
Field | Specify | Verification |
|---|---|---|
Wire range | mm² / AWG per cavity | Pull test on production wire |
Terminal family | Insulated / ferrule / coax / solar | Die drawing match |
Die profile | Indent, oval, hex, trapezoid | Crimp-height measurement |
Release | Ratchet, self-adjusting, hydraulic | Cycle consistency check |
Spares | Replacement dies, ratchet kit | Tooling list and reorder SKUs |
Questions Buyers Ask Before Ordering
Do you supply hydraulic and manual tools?
How do we verify a crimp objectively?
Pull test to the terminal maker's value plus a crimp-height check on the first article of each run. The complete guide includes a quality-record framework.
Crimp or solder for our application?
For vibration and field serviceability a correct crimp is generally preferred. The comparison covers the exceptions.
What documents can be supplied?
Die drawings, wire-range tables, test reports and calibration records are available on request against a named SKU.
Frequently Asked Questions
What terminals do your crimpers handle?
Common insulated and non-insulated terminals; tell us the profiles and we match the dies.
Do you make hydraulic crimping tools?
Yes. Our hydraulic crimping tools cover larger cable lugs used in panel and distribution work.
