Abstract: Portable, hand-held hydraulic tools having a modular power unit within a handle assembly and a working head assembly mated to the handle assembly. The working head assembly can have a pair of movable jaws or a movable jaw and a fixed jaw. The jaws can be configured to perform different operating operations, such as crimping operations and cutting operations.

Abstract: A crimp tool includes a frame, a lead screw and a nut assembly connected to the lead screw. A spring member is connected to the frame and movable with rotation of the lead screw. A first transducer is connected to the nut assembly to measure a first force applied on the nut assembly. A second transducer is connected to the spring member to measure a second force applied thereon by the spring member.

Abstract: A hydraulic tool cutting dies including first and second cutting dies. The first cutting die has a first mounting section and a first cutting edge. The first mounting section is sized and shaped to removably attached to a hydraulic tool. The second cutting die has a second mounting section and a second cutting edge. The second mounting section is sized and shaped to removably attached to the hydraulic tool. The first cutting die includes a post extending past the first cutting edge and the second cutting die includes a post receiving area which has a different cross-sectional shape than the post.

Abstract: A hydraulically powered cutting tool includes a blade holder for securing a piece of cutting material during the shearing process. The assembly includes a tool head having a receiving area for the blade holder. A powered actuator is attached to the tool head adjacent the receiving area for actuating a moving blade. The moving blade includes a first end attached to the powered actuator and a second end with a cutting surface facing a fixed blade. The blade holder is attached to the tool head and includes an arcuate bottom surface adjacent the receiving area at a first end and a sleeve at a second end. The fixed cutting blade is received in the sleeve and includes a cutting surface disposed facing the moving blade.
