        Major Tech | ECT240 Battery Powered Crimping Tool 50kN | 240mm2 Copper Capacity

        The Major Tech ECT240 is a battery-powered hydraulic crimping tool rated at 50kN, running on 2.5Ah lithium batteries. It crimps copper up to 240mm2 and aluminium up to 185mm2 through a 14mm stroke. The ECT240 has a 180 degree swivelling barrel and an OLED display reporting pressing time, battery charge, and fault codes. It ships as a kit with crimping dies, two batteries, a charger, and a carrying case.

        Crimping 240mm2 copper manually is not realistic work, and a hydraulic hand pump occupies both hands on a ladder. The ECT240 completes a cycle in 2.5 to 4 seconds operating on battery power alone. The two-stage hydraulic system advances the ram rapidly on approach, then concentrates its 50kN at the die. A 180 degree swivelling barrel positions the head according to the lug location rather than the operator's stance.

        On a jointing or switchboard crew, the OLED display eliminates the guesswork surrounding the tool's condition. Pressing time, battery charge, maintenance intervals, and fault codes register directly on the screen rather than emerging unexpectedly mid-crimp. The in-line grip maintains balance through repeated overhead cycles. Two 2.5Ah batteries in the kit allow one to charge while the other operates.

        Features

        • 50kN rated pressure — the ECT240 is rated at 50kN of crimping force at the die.
        • 240mm2 copper capacity — crimps copper conductors up to 240mm2 and aluminium conductors up to 185mm2.
        • Two-stage hydraulic system — the ram operates in two stages, advancing quickly and then delivering force at the crimp.
        • 14mm stroke — the ram travels a 14mm stroke through each crimping cycle.
        • 2.5 to 4 second cycle — a complete crimping cycle finishes in 2.5 to 4 seconds.
        • 180 degree swivelling barrel — the barrel swivels 180 degrees for overhead and confined-space access.
        • OLED display — reports pressing time, battery percentage, maintenance notes, and fault codes.
        • 2.5Ah lithium batteries — two 2.5Ah lithium batteries are supplied with the ECT240.
        • In-line grip — the handle sits in line with the tool body, intended for single-operator use.
        • Complete kit — crimping tool, crimping dies, two batteries, charger, and carrying case supplied together.
        • Crimping only — the ECT240 is a crimping tool, and Major Tech publishes no cutting capacity for it.

        Where to use

        • Cable jointing and terminations — the ECT240 crimps lugs and ferrules onto copper conductors up to 240mm2.
        • Switchboard and panel building — bench crimping of mains and submain terminations during assembly.
        • Overhead and in-situ work — the ECT240 swivelling barrel positions the head where the lug sits.
        • Solar and battery installations — DC cable terminations within the tool's copper and aluminium range.
        • Site work away from power — battery operation removes the need for a lead or a hydraulic hand pump.
        • Repeat production crimping — two batteries and a short cycle time suit a run of terminations.

        The ECT240 is a crimping tool and Major Tech publishes no cutting rating for it. Copper capacity tops out at 240mm2, with aluminium at 185mm2, so larger conductors need a tool sized for them. Crimping dies must match the lug and conductor being terminated, and a hydraulic tool develops substantial force at the head, so keep hands clear and work to the manufacturer's instructions.

        (ECT240)

        Copper conductors up to 240mm2 and aluminium up to 185mm2. Rated pressure is 50kN with a 14mm stroke. Crimping dies are supplied in the kit and must match the lug being terminated.

        A full cycle takes 2.5 to 4 seconds. The two-stage hydraulic system advances the ram quickly on approach, then develops its rated force at the die for the crimp itself.

        The barrel swivels 180 degrees, so the head can be positioned to suit the lug rather than the operator's stance. The in-line grip and light weight support positioning the tool overhead.

        Pressing time, battery percentage, maintenance notes, and fault codes. That puts service status and any fault indication on the screen rather than leaving it to be noticed mid-job.

        The crimping tool, crimping dies, two 2.5Ah lithium batteries, a charger, and a carrying case. Major Tech supplies this tool as a complete kit rather than as a bare unit.

        The tool is a crimper, and Major Tech's datasheet lists no cutting capacity for it. For cutting, Sparky Direct stocks the ECC85 cable cutting tool along with the ECCT300 and ECCT450 combined crimper-cutters.

        Two 2.5Ah lithium batteries and a charger are supplied in the kit. Sparky Direct also lists the Major Tech ECTAD battery adaptor and the MTKBAG heavy duty bag alongside the powered tool range.

        The Major Tech ECT240 is available online from Sparky Direct, with Australia-wide delivery to any state or territory including regional areas. Sparky Direct is an Australian electrical wholesaler established in 2005, supplying more than 500,000 customers with transparent trade pricing.
