Cable Cutting & Crimping
Insulated Tools & Total Safety
The world‘s first battery hydraulic crimping and
cutting tools with Tri-Insulation Barrier technology that provides users with 1.000V protection against
electrical shocks.
There have been several recent advances in cable cutting and crimping tool technology including data recording, bluetooth remote controls and pressure sensors.
All tools have become more compact making them more efficient for jointing and terminating cables in confined spaces as well as enhancing safety features.
Training, supervision, testing and PPE are all standards but what the KLAUKE Orange implements is another layer of electrical safety into the process.

Tri Insulated Barriers on Klauke Tools
During the interview below, Paul stresses the importance of safe working practices including the physical aspect of the tool e.g. the body insulation of the cable crimping or cutting tool. The new Orange Line Tool uses a 3 level or tri-insulation system – the 3 level includes creepage distance, insulation material and oil within the system.
Energyxtra Interview
Paul Morrow describes how Klauke was started in 1879 by two brothers in Germany originally making high quality pliers for the watch-making industry employing only 5 people. In 1960 when electrification become more popular Klauke shifted to developing cable lugs.
In 2018 they were acquired by Emerson and along with Greenlee and Rigid, Klauke can now service all the mechanical, electrical and plumbing requirements in the market.
For even more safety, Klauke has now developed the world‘s first battery hydraulic crimping and cutting tools with Tri-Insulation Barrier.
Before exhibiting at ENERGYx2020 Paul Morrow, UK & Ireland Manager from Klauke, part of the Emerson Group took part in an informative interview with Paul from Energy Network Events discussing electrical safety and the recent launch of the KLAUKE Orange range of fully insulated tools that have set the standard within the global utility industry.

Thorne & Derrick Testimonial
“Since 1985, Thorne & Derrick have gained a solid reputation for contributing to improvements in Workplace Electrical Safety throughout the industry – this includes assisting the
launch of product innovations into the market, such as the Greenlee LS50 & Klauke VDE Orange and being a “go-to” supplier of electrical safety equipment to power industry contractors working with underground cables or overhead lines.
Increasing sales of our Strut Channel Cutter are an excellent example of a success story – the RIDGID STRUTSLAYR is recognised as the strongest and safest strut channel cutter on the market and is available from Thorne & Derrick stocks.
The sales and marketing staff at Thorne & Derrick worked hard and smart on introducing the STRUTSLAYR product to their clients and marketplace during COVID and are now seeing the impressive sales results.
Together during 2022 we welcome the opportunity to jointly promote more Workplace Electrical Safety improvements to be delivered through product innovations including the first remote-controlled cable cutters. For example, the Klauke ESG105RMCCFM and ESG65RMCCFM battery-powered, hydraulic cutting tools which will allow the user to maintain a safe distance whilst cutting cables,” comments Paul.
