IMPERIAL EASTMAN HOSE CRIMPERS
Imperial Eastman Hose Crimpers: K20
The Imperial Eastman K20 Crimper was an attempt to provide a lightweight crimper for one and two wire hydraulic hoses. The bottom of the crimper was made of cheap sheet metal which often broke loose from the main crimper. The gauge settings on this crimper are not uniform with other Imperial Eastman Crimpers.
Special tooling is needed to replace the seal kit. Replacing leaky cylinder seals is not a feasible option.
The crimper is designed for two wire 1" ID Hose and smaller: HU Style fittings only.
