The Amphenol ECONOHEX hand crimp tool
is similar in features and application to the
TRIHEX crimp tools. However, the ECONO-
HEX provides the additional feature of die set
insertion and removal such that the purchase
of the ECONOHEX tool
handle and some or all of the four die sets
will allow the user to terminate most
popular RG coaxial cables as well as
Twinaxial cable for IBM system 3X
networks.
TRIHEX Crimp Tool
ECONOHEX™ Crimp Tool and Dies
The Amphenol TRIHEX crimp tool provides
an economical approach to terminating crimp
connectors.
This compact, easy-to-use, three-cavity
hand tool incorporates the same crimping
ability as most popular two-die crimp tools.
But quality is not sacrificed for economy:
• Full cycle, reinforced ratchet control —
provides the high repeatability and
reliability benefit of crimp terminated
connectors.
• Heavy duty steel construction —
stands up to in-the-field use.
Two models are available, providing
maximum flexibility for use in a wide variety
of applications.
