Manual Hydraulic Conductor Cutter To Cut Cables And Conductors Steel Ground Rods

A Manual Hydraulic Conductor Cutter is a hand-operated tool designed to cut various types of cables and conductors such as copper, aluminum, aluminum-steel cables, steel ropes, and steel ground rods. These cutters use hydraulic pressure generated manually to provide high cutting force, enabling efficient and clean cuts of thick and tough materials.

A Manual Hydraulic Conductor Cutter is a hand-operated tool designed to cut various types of cables and conductors such as copper, aluminum, aluminum-steel cables, steel ropes, and steel ground rods. These cutters use hydraulic pressure generated manually to provide high cutting force, enabling efficient and clean cuts of thick and tough materials.

  • : Depending on the model, manual hydraulic conductor cutters can cut cables with diameters ranging from about 28mm up to 50mm or more. For example:

    • The S-40A model delivers 8 tons of cutting force and can cut ACSR cables up to 38mm in diameter, soft rebar up to 13mm, and guy wire up to 15mm.

    • The S-505 model has a 5-ton output and can cut bare copper wire strands up to 28mm, aluminum wire strands up to 46mm, and lead-sheathed cables up to 50mm.

    • The HSI50F tool can cut up to 50mm diameter conductors and features a rotating cutting head for ergonomic use.

    • The Cembre HT-TC026Y is designed for cables up to about 1 inch (25.4mm) diameter and steel ground rods up to 5/8 inch, with a double speed hydraulic action and rotatable head for comfortable operation.

  • : These tools typically feature a double-stage or double-speed hydraulic mechanism that allows quick feeding of the blade followed by a powerful cutting stroke. The cutting head often rotates (90° to 270°) to allow comfortable positioning and can be opened to cut running cables.

  • : Manual hydraulic cutters include safety valves to prevent overpressure and pressure release devices for safe operation. Maintenance involves cleaning, lubricating blade contact areas, and checking fasteners. Blade replacement is done carefully to avoid damage and injury.

  • : Most manual hydraulic cutters weigh around 6 kilograms and have a length of about 520-560mm, making them portable and suitable for fieldwork.

  • Cutting overhead conductors like ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced)

  • Cutting copper and aluminum cables in electrical installations

  • Cutting steel ropes and guy wires in utility and construction work

  • Cutting lead-sheathed and armored cables in industrial settings

Model Cutting Force Max Cable Diameter (ACSR/Copper/Aluminum) Weight Length Special Features
S-40A 8 tons ACSR up to 38mm, soft rebar 13mm 6 kg 560 mm Double-stage hydraulic design
S-505 5 tons Copper 28mm, Aluminum 46mm, Lead cable 50mm 6 kg 520 mm Suitable for bare wire and lead-sheathed cables
HSI50F - Up to 50mm diameter - - Rotating cutting head 270°, quick feed
Cembre HT-TC026Y - Copper, Aluminum cables up to 1" (25.4mm) - - Double speed action, 180° rotating head, safety valve

These cutters provide a safe, efficient, and portable solution for cutting medium to large diameter conductors manually without the need for electric or pneumatic power sources.

If you need a specific recommendation or details for a particular cable size or application, please specify the conductor type and diameter.
