Metal stud crimper features a unique punch and die shape creating a rectangular crimp connection, by bending over layered thicknesses of channel and stud at the same time to form a sturdy bond without the use of fasteners.
The crimp is always the proper strength and resists stress from any angle, fitting inside the smallest stud & track. Spring return handles snap the punch back in a ready position to go on to the next stud or fastening point.
Tool body consists of a strong, die-cast aluminium “C” frame head and rust-resistant, nickel plated steel handles and parts stampings, while the long-life punch and die are formed from tool steel and are also easily replaced on the job. Lightweight and compact size allows the user to work overhead with ease.
Also features ergonomic Redline Handle technology. An Engineered handle opening compliments the natural power stroke of any user’s hand and maximizes the powerful 7:1 mechanical advantage of compound-leverage head to handle linkage. Comfortable handle grip contours, a non-slip grip insert, spring handle actuation and a thumb-operated handle latch ensure a natural fit and feel for comfortable one hand operation anywhere on the job.
