Introduction
The Aeroquip FT1360 crimp machine has been designed to provide production style crimping capability for all Aeroquip distributors as
well as original equipment manufacturers. The user can crimp -2 through -40 size Aeroquip fittings onto all Aeroquip hose styles including
four and six wire spiral hoses requiring internal skive crimp style fittings.
Each set of eight crimp dies is contained in a die cage which slides in and out of the machine as one package, thus eliminating time
consuming and messy die insertion and removal.
A compact hydraulic power unit supplies pressure to a cylinder which provides the required crimping force through the mechanical
advantage of a crimp ring and crimp die cage.
The crimp die cage is fixed, and the crimp ring moves over the cage to ease in crimping without the fitting moving.
