Chinese Hydraulic Crimper with 4/0 Welding Cable Demonstration And Review

Today I demonstrate my new 16 ton Chinese hydraulic wire crimper that I bought from Amazon. I even cut apart the crimped fitting to inspect the quality of the connection. I bought this crimper to use on a starting unit for heavy equipment that we were building a few months ago and I was impressed with it's capability, especially for the price of the tool. I figured it was worth sharing my experience with the good people of youtube. Harbor Freight offers a hydraulic crimping tool also, but it's costs more than the tool in this video, and it's a smaller crimper. The largest wire listed on the Harbor Freight tool is 0 AWG (zero gauge). The cable I am crimping in this video is 4/0 (four aught) winch is four sizes larger than 0 AWG. This 16 ton Chinese crimper comes with 5 sets of dies LARGER than the 4/0 I was crimper. (11 sets of dies in total) This thing is an absolute beast for the price. I should have bought this tool sooner!
